    Maybe. It was a while ago and it gets bigger each time I think about it.

    kilo
    mega
    giga
    tera
    peta
    exa

    So a petabyte would be 1000 terabytes, which is in turn 1000 gigabytes (using SI convention).
    So, in order to get a petabyte of storage using 200 gigabyte maxtor drives, one would need 5000 drives.
    A terabyte is much more resonable, requiring only 5 drives.

    Ran my Yamaha 8x8x24 CDBurner off of channel 2 of my Promise 100 ATA card for almost three years. Also ran my DVD drive off of it once when I needed the Secondary IDE for something.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Yeah, you can run ATAPI devices on IDE expansion cards. But not on RAID cards, which is what he has. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Yes I shoulda clarrified that, mine is an IDE RAID Card

    It's an IDE Card that supports RAID functions. Thus because of the RAID functionality, I lose ATAPI compatability.
    But then again, I've never experimented with it.... I should later...

    Uh yea... you do realize that would take hundreds of hard drives, even if they were 250 gb ones right?

    1,000Gb = 1Tb

    1,000Tb = 1Pb

    1Pb = 1,000,000Gb

    You lying lying lying little man.
