So the conclusion is that they both work together....

[i run 2 x HD and 2 x CD]

And he can keep the original idefix on his computer...

[blobrana]

Better to have both cd together on same ide line
It`s to do with the PIO speed, (you will get a performance hit as the faster device slows down to match the slower device)

The HD s are a lot faster than the cd roms, so keep them together.

[blobrana]

Unlucky,

But then again,
i`ve had that swapping night mare too...

Same  brand HDs  didn`t work for me ,
(Master, slave etc)
Ended up fitting another different HD just to get IDE  to work ...
