what Vin Y means that this place is to post hot deals, not request for them. Usually there's a &quot;I Wanna&quot; thread floating around where you place your requests in.

You got ripped, fiber channel cards are EXSPENSIVE

to sum up - this is a hotdeals posting site, not a hotdeals requesting site.

and in either case, fiberchannel is expensive to begin with.

Hate to say this to you but you just wasted your money buying the Fibre drive.

Fibre controllers will cost ya $1000+. The cheapeast you'll find it is on e_ba_y for around $200-300. But, not only will you need the controller, you'll need a FCAL drive adapter and an optical copper converted costing you around $200-300. Or you could just a fibre channel hub and a gbic for $500.

It's all up to you.
