CT1770 SB 16 SCSI (my first SCSI something)
IBM 6x86MX PR233

Got an IDE DVD drive from Lite-on from eBay. Advertised as new, hard to tell. Manufactured in 2010. Haven't tested CDDA function yet.

That's a very late drive then, for IDE!

Yup! Used it so far to install W98 a few times and a few games. It's this model: http://us.liteonit.com/us/dvd-internal/item/d … nternal/ihdp118

Tested CDDA and it works fine! The seller has heaps more for $20 shipped so I might get a few more to desperate times 🤣

You could still find IDE DVD/RW drives new a few years back (stocked up on a few for my Mac G4 towers). Most were black but there are a few IDE white/beige drives made before that.

I won this on eBay. I actually didn't know that they are boxed. I prefer just the cards...

Watch out for that voltage regulator in the upper right corner, it gets really hot (at least the one on my CT6700 does). And because of its position on the card it's really easy to burn your fingers.They should have painted it red or something...

I've got these two boxed ISA Tseng Labs cards:
Orchid ProDesigner VGA Plus - ET3000AX

LASKvQ.jpg
Siemens PCS-100
It has many chips:
one ET4000w32i, three Cirrus Logic, one Phillips, Two Lucent and one Xilinx.
The flat cable can be connected to a sound card/modem/IDE controller (as big as this one) that the seller latter offered to me. I'm not sure, but I think I'll buy it to.

Can someone enlighten me about these? How much ram, peculiarities, etc?

I don't doubt it. Thanks for the warning. This is going in P-233 I'm assembling currently.

Photo is after I cleaned the card, it was filthy, fan/heatsink were clogged with dirt & dust. Image quality is fantastic and scores well in 3DMark 99.
