Right - here's where my lack of tech knowledge lets me down. I've definately not put a scsi card in the machine so it must be one of them eide thingies that I need. It's got to plug into that big fat ribbon cable that runs inside the PC.

What does the ATA100 mean and why do I want it?

Will all EIDE be configurable as a second drive?

Just as an example would this be suitable? http://www.jungle.com/webapp/wcs/sto...Id=11206121001

or would this be better as it runs at 7200rpm but is not ATA100!!!

Fitting and configuring it won't be a problem cos I did it before on my works PC when we canibalised a spare machine - I just want to be sure that I get the right one to fit in!

Thanx for your help guys - like most people I get kinda nervous when it comes to messin about with the gubbins inside the box!!!!!
