All right, I'm going to be the chump here. I'm sorry to be asking so many questions about the 2300c and its IDE voodoo. I did, however, get the CF-IDE adapter I was playing with to work in my 2300c, and this is a good first step. Next, though, I'm curious as to whether or not the Duo's controller is capable of addressing a slave device on the bus. Particularly, I'm thinking the Addonics Dual CF to IDE adapter. Has anyone tried? Does anyone know how the 2300c treats its IDE bus? I've looked around a bunch, but it doesn't seem like much has been investigated regarding this issue. The other alternative is that it was investigated a long time ago and it was discovered that this sort of thing isn't possible, and the issue never came up again. Please feel free to tell me off if this is the case. Someone might suggest to me that I use the SCSI bus in addition to the IDE bus - this may be an option, but only if I can find the requisite SCSI to IDE adapter. This is a pretty specific thing. Thanks! Keegan
