[X4U] Where to put a 3rd hard drive?

[Craig Hoffman]

Hi David,
You need to buy a ATA controller card. I've been using this one from  
SIIG for years with out any trouble.  An ATA card will make your life  
easier, you won't have to fumble with cables every-time you need to  
use your CD-ROM drive.
