Thanks to list members who offered advice on SCSI v. IDE for a Photoshop machine. I decided to use the fastest IDE drives I could find: 2 x 40 GB in a RAID-0 pair for Photoshop scratch, and one 120 GB (with an 8 MB buffer) for system/applications/documents. Then I spent all $ saved by not buying SCSI, plus more, on memory: a total of 3 GB of DDR (double data rate) RAM. I can't be sure if this is optimum, but I suspect it won't suck. Richard Wolfson
