If i have to and i buy a PCI one does in connect to the hard drive via jumpers or does the mother board just connect it to the hard drive. Also is there any compadibility issues with certain hard drives as far as SCSI and IDE go, like which type of disk controller you have to use. And if i have to buy one which protocol do you reccommend, and what is a good compadible controller for FreeBSD?E-mail me back
