Umm, why not put hard disc and CDROM drive on same ATA cable?
I agree that it is bad practice to make a hard disc a slave to
a CDROM drive, but the other way 'round is IMO the preferred method
for connecting them. IOW, I have two ATA interfaces on my MB, and
I have four drives. Each controller has one hard disc and one CDROM
drive. This permits multiple seeks to be issued. Putting both
hard discs on one controller would result in reduced throughput
(to/from the hard discs).
What is your reasoning?

I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
