I recently purchased an IDE drive, which I would like to use in
conjunction with my existing MFM drive.  My MFM controller has the
ability to function at a different base address, but this doesn't
seem to help.  Everyone I've talked to says they've heard it's possible,
but none have ever actually done it.

Anyone have any practical experience/advice?

Thanks,

Pat McCarthy
