Phantom got my adapter (I sent it to him for free to check if it was working with his setup) that I got while reading this thread. The adapter is the following:

...which has 2xSATA headers and as Ferix said in the first posts... might work.

I haven't tried it to work on my Amigas nor I cared if if didn't, since the expense of El'Cheapo 5euro (including shipping) was too little to test it. I just got it to have it sitting in case I needed, so I sent Phantom to check it out if working.

The fact that HD is working is nice, so I think that the CDROM will after some tries (Slave or CS jumpering check, HD jumper check, Position in the adapter - since it has 2xHeaders specifically numbered etc). If it won't work... then ... no worries! :)

Sure. You can use an ACard 7720U or R-IDSC-E/R type adapter. I also know about an Yamaha adapter that works but I dunno the model or product number.

Cheers

ACard's price is the manufacturer's one. You can find in eBay from time to time. I got mine for 30 euro (incl. shipping).
