KT7 RAID: Proper IDE and PCI usage suggestions ???

[dalfollo]

I am putting together a system based on the
KT7 RAID using the following IDEs and PCI
slots. I am looking to reduce conflicts now,
rather than switching cards endlessly to find
which one offends and where it should go.

Do you see any problem with this setup? Any
suggestions appreciated. I am running Win98SE.

IDE1 Master - DVDROM (pioneer 105s)
IDE1 Slave - ZIP 250
IDE2 Master - CDRW (HP8100i from old pc)
IDE2 Slave - Empty
IDE3 Master - IBM 45GB 7200/100
IDE3 Slave - Empty for now
IDE4 Master - Empty for now
IDE4 Slave - Empty for now

AGP - Radeon 32DDR
PCI1 - (Slot Fan)
PCI2 - SB Live! 5.1
PCI3 - Frontx audio cables to front of case
slot not used, only opening (www.frontx.com)
PCI4 - Empty
PCI5 - Empty (shares IRQ with Highpoint Driver
PCI6 - NIC (Netgear 10/100)
ISA - WILL NOT USE

i picked up some info that suggested putting
the SB Live! in PCI3

You might have some problems with the SB Live, but there are a couple of slots OK.
I use the PCI6.
