Hi

I recently bought a 2 Channel IDE RAID card (QTECH 340R which uses an
Sil0680 chip) so that I could fit an extra HDD to my system.

Just wondered if its OK to run 2 IDE devices as Master/Slave on each channel
of the RAID?

I dont need the RAID function just a requirement to fit extra HDD's.

Thanks for any info

Ian
