Sounds good, Roger.  You can leave one of them in, unless
you plan to put 2 Gigs in.

Hi George

Yes the 2 slots are used with a 256 in each.

My 2.0 USB are at the bottom back of the tower so I'll
Google to see whet I can find for a front bay. I like the
sound of that as it's saves the wife keep moaning when I
have her grovelling round the back. LOL  I have an 8 bay
tower and only 3 are used so I have plenty of space.
