Question Suggest a PC card ??

Can anybody recommend an HD PC card with motor control on it ?? Also are the cards full or half hight as it will effect which computer I put it in.

Thanks as always

running your motor can be a bit dodgy from your pc... can blow your power supply quite easily.
I've a SSHD2 and new drivers have just been released for Disecq handling however i am too much of a coward to try them!
I did try them for general viewing but found them a bit touchy with vPlug so no use to me
Personally i'd use a receiver to run the motor a lot easier although a bit more fiddly!
