Well, Bernie,
YOu could also invest in an I/O card with a secondary, or even a tertiary
IDE controller interface. Each controller can support four devices. Some
motherboards support secondary and even tertiary controllers. Of course,
the more controllers you use, the more devices you connect, the more
complicated your setup becomes with IRQ lines used, port addresses spoken
for, device drivers loaded, etc., etc.
SCSI for at least one of your two controllers would be a good idea, since
you could have on one SCSI controller, 7 or 15 devices, depending on which
type and flavor of SCSI you buy. Of course, whether and how you can do some
of those things, depends on what controller cards you have, and what your
motherboard's BIOS can support or be upgraded to support.
