This is the ultimate IDE RAID kit! This package includes the following:

- TWO 15 Gigabyte IBM 75GXP’s (7200 rpm IDE hard drive w/2 meg cache)
- TWO Promise Technologies Fastswap IDE (RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 3, & 5 hotswap) drive enclosures (w/ active
fan cooling!).
- ONE Promise Technologies Fastrak100 PCI IDE RAID 0, 1, 0+1 card
- TWO Promise ATA100 cables AND - Warranty card, documentation, and drivers are all included for the
Fasttrak100 and drivebays.

First off, all items listed are brand new and were opened and tested for 2 days to record IDE RAID benchmarks for an online retailer. Everything works incredible and was immediately put back in static bags and their original boxes. All items listed have their full manufacturer warranties. The IBM 75GXP’s are undoubtedly the best IDE hard drive on the market today and deliver 37mb/sec sustained transfer rates and terrific access times. In an IDE RAID setup, the sustained transfer rates of the combined IBM 75GXP’s are doubled, giving an amazing 74mb/sec sustained transfer rate. This is a great option for high-end systems, gamers, video/audio editors....basically anyone who wants a blazing setup. These hard drives retail for ~ $110 each. The Promise Fastswap IDE hotswap drive bays are the same exact product as the new Promise Superswap drive bays, they just have different decals on the front. These are NOT cheap little drive enclosures that you can find for $10. These retail for $79 each and are VERY high quality. They are the only drive enclosures that will do IDE RAID hot swap with the Promise Fastrak series cards. Not only are the chassis on the enclosures made of copper for optimum heat dissipation, but they also have their own cooling fans. They also have LED lights that tell you the status of the IDE RAID array depending on the color of the lights. If you wish, a well-designed software program can also analyze the RAID array (free download from Promise’s website). They are also great for carrying drives from one computer to another. The Promise Fastrak100 PCI IDE RAID card is the best IDE RAID solution available. It currently retails for ~ $95. It does RAID 0 (striping) for optimum performance and RAID 1 (or even RAID 0+1) for maximum performance, security, and redundancy. The Promise Fastswap bays and Fastrak100 come with two Promise ATA100 cables, documentation, drivers, and warranty card. -This whole package currently retails for over $450!!! -Shipping will be $17 because each hard drive and the drive enclosures/raid card (drive bays are slightly heavy) are in their own boxes...which requires the items to be placed in a relatively large box, which will be insured. Im asking $300 or best offer.
