for two secondary SCSI channes for a maximum of 45 SCSI devices.

Dual Power Supply:  Has both AT and ATX power connectors onboard to sup-
port an AT or ATX power supply with soft-on/off features.

Versatile DRAM Memory Support: Supports eight 72-pin SIMMs of 4MB,
8MB, 16MB, 32MB, 64MB, 128MB to form a memory size between 8MB to
1GB. Supports both Fast Page Mode (FPM), and Extended Data Output (EDO)
SIMMs. Burst Extended Data Output (BEDO) supported with the C-P6ND CPU
card.

ISA and PCI Expansion Slots: Provides three 16-bit ISA slots and seven 32-bit
PCI slots.

Super Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART-compatible serial ports and
one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. Supports two of either 5.25- or
3.5-inch disk drives (1.44MB or 2.88MB) without an external card.

PCI Bus Master IDE Controller: Comes with an onboard PCI Bus Master
IDE controller with two connectors that supports four IDE devices in two chan-
nels, supports PIO Modes 3 and 4 and Bus Master IDE DMA Mode 2, and
