Of course, this means master on a second IDE channel!

This is the desireable arrangement in any case.  IDE is a serial data
interface, like the ST-506 it is descended from.  Having a CD on the
same channel can reduce the I/O speed of the HD to that of the CD,
when both are acceessed simultaneously...
