Hi

I have been given a free 500Mhz socket 7 computer
Ultra DMA 33;DMA Mode 2 support

I want to make a cheap file server, but since I'm not able to put any hard drive over 8.4 gigs I am looking at ATA add-in cards to solve my problem. Will an ATA-133 add in card allow me to install bigger drives and will bus mastering work?

the motherboard in question can be found here:

Thanks for your help
