My apologies to the net; I know that this subject has been discussed recently but, as fate would have it, I didn't think that I would need the info so did not read the messages. Having said that, my question is whether I can have a both a 40 MB IDE drive (WD I think) and a 20 MB ST506 type drive in my system. I know that I cannot use the IDE adaptor to drive the 20 MB drive but can both controllers coexist? If so, are there any things that I should be aware of? I am running DOS3.3 on a '386 machine. Thanks in advance, -Graham

Well, you have this minor problem. Both controllers will be at the same address, and use the same IRQ. -- Leonard Erickson ...!tektronix!reed!percival!bucket!leonard CIS: [70465,203] "Oregon Guild Gold Card -- don't leave home without it!"
