I bought a 2 drive Serial ATA controller off Craigslist for $25. I put
this in my B/W G3 with a pair of 160G Hitachis I got brand new for
$40.00 each after rebate. That's a lot of fast storage for a little
cash.

They Xbench well over 100 when empty in a G3/900 B/W. They also work
fine in older PCI powermac hardware!
