Re: Maximum Number Of Internal Hard Drives
I have 5 sometimes & can have 11 if I want & I'm on an old PC.

I can do this by using a SCSI card that will allow me to have upto 7 SCSI HDD's (albiet a bit more expensive than IDE).

Its a playoff on what you want, on the EIDE cables you can usually only have a maximum of 4 drives.

As suggested, pehaps having bigger drives is the way to go, you can always partition them into more smaller drives if you wish.
