Looking for Desktop that has 3.5 standard Hard Drive Bays, and several power cables to support SATA HDD drives.
Also needs to have free PCIE 1X slot.
I'm wanting to access parents old Zip Drive disks. I have a PCIE to Parallel port card.
For some reason the HD Pavilion I was given has a problem with one of the power cables. The HDD drive does not show up in BIOS. It's daisy chained with 2 sata power connectors on 1 cable.
Both run the Optical (DVD Drive), but the HDD drive doesn't power up.
Same issue with 2nd disk.
I have an external Bay that I can access both drives on. So I know the drives are good.
The case is missing the origianl 3.5 bays. So it's a tight fit getting the 3.5 hard drive installed under the DVD drive bay. Looking for something that is easy accesible. No missing parts.
