There are PCI/PCI-X to PCI-e bridge chips available (as well as PCI-e to AGP) and they're part of the spec. As to how well they actually work on a separate riser card, I'm not sure. I like the idea though. This board looks decent if you need a ton of drives. The second x16 slot is actually a x4 electrical, but that not too shabby for a $100 mobo. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128335 -B -- Brandon High [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The good is the enemy of the best." - Nietzsche _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
