OP OP P pcbuilder Baseband Member Messages 37 Jan 9, 2012 #11 Well that sucks cause I didn't even get it at that great a price, it was like 45 dollars. I guess I should probably buy a new one, suggestions? Is the rest of the build good?

MindoverMaster Golden Master Messages 12,213 Location /home Jan 10, 2012 #17 Most boards come with one IDE connection. And IDE drives are still being sold as retail, so they aren't dead yet. They are becoming more rare, though.

Slaymate Golden Master Messages 7,946 Location Florida Jan 11, 2012 #20 This is the 1st mobo I've ever owned that didn't have a IDE port. But I have a external IDE to usb enclosure I use on any IDE drives that come by.
