Question by Sridhar K: Connecting 3 IDE Hard disk Externally?? (Possibly using Racks)?
Hi,
I have recently upgraded my system and the new motherboard supports only SATA and not IDE. It has a secondary IDE for DVD. But I have 3 IDE Hard disk from he older system which i would like to use with this system. I heard that i can use external casing which can fit in the HDD and can be connected to the usb of the system. But i don't want to waste my USB ports. I would like to know if there are any kind of rack model which would be able to accommodate all the HDD and be connected to the system through a single cable. If someone has better suggestions also you are welcomed. Please let me know if such rack model IDE holders exists and their names and models if possible.

I would have to say that the External casing would be the best choice.
using a single cable to connect 3 IDE HDDs would just result in extremely slow data transfer speeds "if it
