A:\ isn't actually there, my floppy drive isn't fitted (because I never use it and the space is handy for ventilation).
C:\ is my system drive, a Seagate 80GB ATA133 HD
D:\ is a storage space for media, an IBM 80GB ATA133 HD
E:\ is my new baby, a Seagate 160GB SATA150 HD (my pagefile and my movies are on there)
F:\ is my Liteon 16x DVD-ROM drive
G:\ is my Liteon 52x32x52 CD-RW drive
H:\ to K:\ are the slots in my 6-in-1 card reader
L:\ is my 64MB USB2 pen drive





Damn, I have a lot of storage space :blink:

Do you think it should count when they aren't really there (the 6 in 1 card reader etc)?

Oh and the ploppy drive, thats not there either.

What if you had:

3 optical drives (eg 2x CDRW, 1x DVDRW)
3 hard drives
one of them 4x drive letter card readers
an external USB hard drive
a floppy drive
one of them Zip drives (obsolete, I know but what the hell)
a USB pen (or 2 :P)
MP3 player

Thats... 16 drives I think.

Anybody know what comes after the alphabet? :blink:

Haha, just saw you called your PC holly :lol: IQ of 6000 my arse...

Oh yeah, you seen them server CD drives, its like 6in1.

Last time I checked you can only have the 24 logical drive partitions, so I would think you could only have the 26 drives, if you count two floppy drives.

You were going to get a 120GB drive until you heard I got a 160GB one. That&#39;s just terrible one-up-manship.

Well, your loss (dem drives are expensive&#33;) :P

one as primary master, one as secondary master (on ide) and one on s-ata

though you could have one on primary master, one on primary slave, one on secondary master, one on secondary slave and 2 on s-ata (but then you&#39;d have no optical drives)

or you could buy a pci ide controller and have a load more :)

i was going to, but livy partly persuaded me not to

the transfer rates on internal s-ata should be quite a bit better than external :)
