Hi fitzsteve,

thanks very much for letting me know.
Ok then I'm going to try the SCSI route as well, instead of the FastATA.
I have, in fact, a SCSI kit that I'm not using right now with my Blizzard 1230.

May I ask you a few things?

1.)From here:
http://www.vesalia.de/d_acard.htm

would I need the 7720-U or would the 7720-UW version be better for my CF card (with WHD Load and Blizzard 1230-IV and SCSI Kit)?

2.)Is this a plug-n-play operation or do I need to make specific commands for this to work?

3.)Right now I'm using a Transcenden 133x 4GB card. Can I increase speed even more if I use a 233x CF along with the SCSI kit and the 7720U/UW?

4.)If I need to configure everything in WB 3.1 (kickstart 3.1) in order for all this to play nicely together - is that configuration saveable? Like you do it once and will never have to do it again (just boot WB and it works on its own) - or will I have to "initialise" it each time I restart WB?

Thank you very much in advance for your help
