SCSI devices
« on: December 14, 2002, 11:37:25 PM »
I'm considering to start using only SCSI-devices by buying SCSI CD-Rom drive. Currently, I have multiple SCSI harddrives, and I use my A4000's inbuild IDE-controller only for my IDE CD-Rom-drive.

What I would like to know, is that can I disable the IDE-controller? Would it speed up booting, when there would be no need for probe possible IDE-devices? Would there be any other advantages/disadvantages?

1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

Thanks!

It would be cool if there was hw-fix for this, to speed up even cold-boots.
