I have a Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.O card
installed. It seems ok.

Possibly, because it is USB rather than ATAPI. No matter what the hardware I
wouldn't expect any 9x version to work satisfactorily above 127GB on an IDE
hard disk, but maybe external USB, I don't know. I'd be interested to try it
(if I still had a Win ME installation set up!).

However, assuming the computer does not have USB 2.0 support, I think a
500GB disk even if it did work would be so very slow as to be untenable. So
a USB 2.0 PCI card would be a practical necessity.

Any advice would be appreciated?
Thanks.
