Nice, but can you use 2 IDE devices at the same time on a vanilla 1200 without a buffered interface? Not possible IIRC.

We have used two CF Hard Drive adapters with this cable, worked OK in our tests.

You can use HDD and CDROM on same cable under scsi device. That was one test and with this cable, two CF cards were tested.

Neat! Thx!

Sorry, but I think it looks to be of poor quality like the last backplate you had manufactured. Wrong colour and doesn't fit well.

For what you are asking I can't help but think that a better product is warranted.

How best does one do this? I tried doing this but the amiga only see one hdd. I tried swapping the jumps so one was slave and the other master but still no luck.

OK, i'm not sure if it's 'ok' to bump this very old thread, but i might have a direct answer to your enquiry. I'm trying to research the same thing at the moment - perhaps this will work?

@Derek

Have you considered our buffered IDE interface. This is a safer way of connecting than the one you linked to.

Im just about to upgrade my 1200 to 3.2.
What is the point of the 2nd connection on the cable if the amiga isnt buffered? Is this potentially dangerous for data reliability?
