That's one IDE-Device too much :) But the ATA66 really should be given a seperate controller or share one with an other ATA66. > Do you mean the kernel misbehaves because of the slave disk? I thought > DMA modes could be set individually per HD I have got two IBM-HDs, one ATA66 and one ATA33. WHile using them on the same controller it wa snot possible to use UDMA66 with the newer one. I had to set it to UDMA33 by using an IBM-tool. Now the ATA66 has the first controller, the ATA33 and the CD share the other one. Phil
