[comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware] Can IDE and RLL Co-exist?

jayh@ms.uky.edu (Jay Hofacker) (04/06/91)

I currently have a '386 computer with a WD RLL controller with a Maxtor
XT1085 (~107 Meg) and a Toshiba ?MK134? (66 Meg).  Can I add an IDE controller
without having to remove the RLL controller?  Does the secondary controller
require a free IRQ line?  Will I need any special drivers to access the IDE
drive from PC-DOS 3.3 (or would DOS 4.01 be better for this?)?

If you reply via Email, I'll post a summary of answers.
