[SunHELP] Second IDE Drive on Solaris x86

Tue Dec 5 15:28:40 CST 2000

We have a MX and DNS server set-up on a PIII 700 MHz, with a 9GB IDE HD. We 
are looking at adding a second HD and using it to hold the mail spool. 
However, since this is all on the same IDE controller, will it increase 
perfomrance, or decrease?

I am not up on the performance associted with IDE, and have heard that a 
slave IDE device may be slower. Any thoughts?
