I use one of my 8500-8s in a 32bit slot on an MSI Dual PIII motherboard with no problems... You just have to make sure the 64bit part of the connector does not foul on any motherboard parts as it hangs over the edge of the 32bit slot...

Thanks for all the advise people have offered. I've been checking out all the 3ware cards available and believe that the Escalade 7506-4LP would be best for me.
However I've noticed that it is a 64-Bit PCI Card. Can I still use this in a 32-Bit Slot. I think that I read something once that said it would work but at a reduced bandwidth.
Page 16 of the Installation Guide says a 32bit slot is fine.
