Definitely keep the HD's together and the CD roms together. The slowest
device on the chain will slow down the rest.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Please Vote On This IDE Question(Thanks)
It has always troubled me as to how best arrange 4 items on
the Primary and Secondary IDE buses. We all agree that
the Hard Drive should be the Master on the Primary IDE bus.
But, what about the other 3 things a PC can have (all internal):
a Zip Drive, a CD-ROM, and a CD-R. Which, in your opinion,
based on your experience, have you found to work the best.
In anticipation of some questions:
