As far as I know the sound card interfaces only supported CD-Roms.
But didn't the old SB AWE32 and 16 have an ATA/IDE interface?
What pins did the data transfer over the last 8?
No possible way to make driver work on 8-bit bus?

Hi Richard !
Cruise missile !?¿¿ You know what it costs just to fuel one of those things? Besides, they are nowhere NEAR as accurate as those few lucky shot videos you see on the Cartoon Network. Nope, they are still mad at me at the Post Office over that last incident, and are just trying to recoup some of the cost of the rebuild. :twisted:
Richard you do what you have to do, I'm done whining and fretting over it. I'm sure the card is in good hands.

I beleive the IDE/ATA is full in hardware but drivers only supported CD rom.

I just shipped a Quantum 3.2 GB HD to PA today and, even with $100 insurance, it cost me the equivalent of about 11.50 US, so, they must be mad at you for something, Bob.
Although I'm just an ol' country electronics brain surgeon, I'll treat it like it was my very own card and....oops, just dropped a hard drive...and you can rest assured that it will be....who the hell put that damn computer so close to the edge of the workbench, now I'll have to pound the dents out after I sweep up the CRT from that guy's system...safe and sound in my capable hands... Hey, more Southern Comfort over here, wench!
bob,
Be sure to stamp (in huge red letters) BOMB PARTS on the package, or it'll be held up in Canadian Customs for five weeks (again) while they try to figger out what the hell it is.

Actually, the local PO rejected a package from me a few days ago because the dumpster-rescued box had the word 'opium' on it (in.re. the fragrance, not the drug). And, I'm not kidding about Canadian customs, it was about 5 weeks, wasn't it, D?
I realize it's a different world, but do they really need to carry this (false) security thing to the absurd...?

While looking for some CoCo2 programs and emualtors I found this site:

There is a 3.4M zip file called: 8bit_ide.zip
Its a pdf file when unzipped but it has alot of info and schematics of a 8 bit ide controller.
Hope this is what you are all looking for.
