thanks gang!!

all I'm missing now is a SATA cable and I can complete my U-box build!!

I got the CPU, CPU Fan, and drives installed yesterday -- but-- only 2 SATA cables shipped with the motherboard -- and I installed two Seagate/Baracudas plus an ANSUS CD/DVD optical drive!!

( thinking about trying to get this box to run RAID0 -- which is supported on the M5A88-M motherboard ) .if i get all the cabling installed today i'll try to power i up w/ Disk 0 only connected -- keep ur fingers crossed!! I'm donloading the 64bit AMD Desktop version of 12.04 LTS for an ISO burn this morning

so thanks again; plan to hang around here with questions and maybe i can help out a bit sometimes too

Congrats. I have been a "reader" here since 2006 but still have a negligible post count.

Just a quiet guy, I guess!

Why do you want to run a RAID0? If one drive goes down, you lose the entire array.
