My best advice is to ignore that internal IDE connecter and get a Zorro based IDE adapter.
I'm surprised! I was under the impression that the IDE connector on the Buddha was just as slow as the A4000/A1200's internal connector. But I'm willing to be corrected!
I have the combined Buddha / Catweasel combo in my A3000 and it seems OK when using an recent-ish (in Amiga terms!) 10Gb IBM IDE drive. My boot drive is an
ancient 1.2Gb-ish SCSI from about 1973 (kidding!) and it's pretty slow. But I was under the impression that the A3K's internal SCSI would beat any classic-Amiga-based IDE connection provided the drive was up to the job.
