Go figure.

This is because at the time Firmtek was designing their Mac ROM for the
Promise ATA/33 card, the only model device which would work was one which
was modeled as if it was a SCSI device.
Sadly, Firm

Nope ... as long as there has been IDE/PATA in Macs, there has been an

No, there shouldn't be any interference between a SCSI bus and an ATA

I have a 1.25GHz MDD DP that has been running happily for a couple of
