    yes, that will work perfectly. Just remember to install any CD's you get with it and look for update drivers on the manufacturers website (Dynex). Drivers solve alot of problems and fix bugs. Even if you are not having problems it is recromended. It can make the proformance better too sometimes.

    Hope I could help

    SCSI = small computer system interface. Faster than IDE, usually used with SCSI hard drives in a RAID array for data redundancy.
