  2. What does Drive only mean? Do we need to buy something other than round cables for this?

    Does SCSI need a special high priced motherboard....does a P$ or ASUS motherboard work with SCSI.

    I was reading that Windows XP and SCSI drives had a conflict and Windows was makig a patch.....did this get done?
