I'm trying to add a second hard drive to a Compaq 386s (that's the
one with the 80386SX).  It has one Compaq factory installed drive.  I
know the Compaq controller is rather strange and is actually part of
the first hard drive, but the cable coming off of the drive does have
a connecter for another drive.  The question I have is that I've
heard the Compaq controller isn't compatible with IBM AT hard
drives.  Does anyone know if this is the case?
