Popsicle Raid
With the new Mac Pro and it's 4 internal drives that can be raided together to work with uncompressed HD being all the talk, I thought that I'd share how I created an internal Raid with 4 drives using popsicle sticks, a SATA card and a few cables.

Been like that for 2 years now, 5 HDs in my G5. (Note there's a hidden one ontop of the DVD-+RW DL but its a ATA).

Nice.
I have six total...not to one up you or anything. The three in front of the fans, one below the Optical, and two in the spots they are supposed to go.
