Am I full? Can I still plug in a Hard drive?

[RollWave]

I have a P4C800 Deluxe (asus) and I have 3 CD rom drives and 2 SATA drives going raid. I want to get another harddrive (the Seagate 200mb ATA100 drive ST3200822A from Mwave.com) and I'm not sure if I'll have room in my case. Anyone know if there are enough EIDE channels or wahtever? I'm somewhat new to adding hard drives and what not...

You could get a PCI IDE controller card

Otherwise you should have got 2 IDE channels put the drive primary master with cd slave. Then the other 2 cds on the secondary.
