we know, hubird.
you'd rather someone else already thought about it before you buy it all put together. :)

there are levels to those charts. as you add devices, sharing occurs. if you have turned off most unneeded ports you'll likely be ok. at what level does the chart show sharing? first, second or third? if it's first, don't use that slot unless you have to. i have had to allow sharing with a sata controller in the past and the machine ran just fine, so it's not to end of the earth, necessarily.

Thanks Garyb! Here's a picture

I guess horizontal A would be what you call 1'st layer and onwards...?!

If this is the case, then with my 2 scope cards setup the best thing would prob be PCI slot 1 and 2 (turn off Lan and hope Sata controller 2 dont give any hassle). And then 'praying to the aliens"...

oohh almost forgot..Hub...Thnx for your insightful input :wink:
