&gt;&gt;That doesn't work since there is no module to mount the drive.  I have to
&gt;&gt;provide that.  I just wondered if mixing SATA and IDE was not going to work.
&gt;&gt;Dell wouldn't sell a mixed machine so when it didn't have the module needed
&gt;&gt;then I wondered.  Just checking before I go to the trouble.

&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;Is there any reason I can't use an IDE drive in a machine with a SATA
&gt;&gt;&gt;      
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;drive
&gt;&gt;    
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;at the same time?  Dell 360n w/RHEL3 Wkstn has a SATA root drive and I
&gt;&gt;&gt;      
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;want
&gt;&gt;    
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;to add an IDE drive.  There aren't modules available to mount the drive. 
&gt;&gt;&gt;Only the SATA scsi module is available.  How would I go about getting this
&gt;&gt;&gt;working?  Recompile the kernel and modules to support both SATA and IDE? 
&gt;&gt;&gt;Haven't done this in a long time so am going to have to review.  Thanks,
&gt;&gt;&gt;Dow
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;      
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Just plug in the IDE drive, and the kernel will see it?  That's what I have 
&gt;&gt;running on my Dell Precision 340.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;Thanks
