Efika - Can I use a dual IDE cable?
« on: January 17, 2009, 07:52:39 PM »
I am currently saving for an Efika, and was wondering if I can attach a standard 3.5" HD and DVD-RW IDE via an adapter IDE cable. I believe built in is a 44pin (laptop) IDE port on the Efika?


Thanks,

Efika can only support one 2.5" IDE drive plugged directly into the IDE port.  Any additional storage has to accessed via USB or over a network.

If you try and use cables it won't work and you may even damage the Efika.
