- Two C= Engineers, and one Zenith worker have said this in the same week.
- Is anyone willing to post a list of compatible IDE drives or
- cross-reference table of drives that will work properly in a master/slave
- setup? 3 of C= Amigas have IDE interfaces, one of which offers the
- 'supported' addition of a slave. Publishing a list of drives that are 'known'
- to work would probably be VERY welcome.

- I'm all for opening a can 'o worms. I hate fishing without bait.
