You should have no problem as long as you turn off the power to everything
before changeing the cables over from CD to Syquest and back. AFAIk the
EZflyer, just like the EZdrive looks to the system just like an ordinary
hard drive, as long as there is a cartridge in it at the time the system
checks for hard drives.
I wonder if dual channel IDE controllers are supported on the Q40, if so,
that may solve your problem, you could have all the devices hooked up
permanently.
