Hi, I posted this in the peripherals section, but it should probably go in here. I have a blueberry iMac that has no firewire ports. I currently use it as a server, and while it does have a 120 GB drive in there, I would like for the ability to have more. Oh, I guess I should mention that I've put this imac into an acrylic cube (you can see pictures here) so I have pretty easy access to all the guts. I guess my ideal solution would be to have a firewire raid either inside (if there's room which is doubtful) or next to it. I know they make bridgeboards for IDE drives to go to firewire cables, but I don't have a firewire port. Is there anything like an IDE->Firewire adapter? Any advice here? Thanks!

Cool. Unfortunately, that's a bit out of my price range. Do you know of any company that makes something like that without the processor upgrade card?
Thanks!

Yeah, unfortunately that is the only option avaiable. I have found the 600Mhz at pricegrabber.com for just over $300.
