You could add a udma66/udma100/RAID card which would give you another two
chanels.  Alternatively, and probably better, get a SCSI card (they're not that
expensive for a bog standard Adaptec) and a couple of SCSI disks.  These are a
little more expensive than IDE but you could look for 2nd hand ones if money is
scarce.

 Hi all...
 
 many thanks for the video card advice. It's set up and working
 properly. However, I need more help. Apologies if this question is
 off-topic: is there any easy way to increase the number of IDE slots
 on my motherboard? I have two drives on each cable, and need to add
 another. What's the best way of doing this?
 
 Cheers

I'm not a complete idiot, some parts are missing!
