I myself have personally installed 7 (seven) hard drives and one CD drive
all using IDE bussing.
The only requirement is 4 individual addresses and 4 IRQ's (one for each
address)
The addresses/IRQ's that I used were:
Primary 1F0-1F7 14
Secondary 170-177 15
Tertiary 168-16F 10
Quaderary 1E8-1EF 11
The primary and secondary are predetermined on the mother board. Tertiary
was from the
Sound card and the quaderary was from a sIDE-2/CD I/O card I picked up for
$2.00 which
allowed for the second, third and fourth addresses and IRQ 10, 11, 12, 15.
