John – > moving the drive off the card, and put it below or above the 4000's IDE As you know, the A4000 has one 5?" slot (over the floppy) and four 3?" slots (including the floppy). I only recently discovered that you can install all four 3?" devices ONLY if they are all 1" high. Since the floppy is about 1?" high, I cannot install another 3?" drive in front. However, the IDE drive is 1", so there's room for another drive there, and there is the 5?" slot. Well, all the hard drives I presently have available are 1?" high (so they can't go in the slot adjacent to the IDE, and still allow me to put the cover on; and I want to save the 5?" slot for a CR-ROM, or maybe a Syquest or MO drive. **SIGH** . . . .
