Are there any IDE host adaptors on the market that are functionally identical
to the drive controller - I/O card that ALR puts in their FlexCache 25386DT
that one can purchase for a generic AT class machine? What this drive
controller - I/O card has in it is the folllowing:
40-pin IDE connector
34-pin Floppy controller connector
Parallel Port
Serial Port (DB-9)
Also, you have the ability to disable the IDE interface if desired and just
use the floppy, parallel and serial ports on the card.
Anything like that out there for generic machines? If so, could somebody
e-mail me a price and a distributor to buy one from. I haven't seen such a
beast in the Computer Shopper yet.
