Does the Clamshell iBook have two IDE interfaces, one for the CD and one for the HD? Also, what's the speed of the Clamshell's IDE interface?
(I've read that the chicklet iBooks have only one IDE interface, thus the question.)
If they have two interfaces, has anyone ever tried hooking a master and slave both up to the hard disk's IDE bus?
I'm thinking of an awesome Clamshell hack, using a dual-CF adaptor. One card is master, the other card is slave. This would let us put RAID in the iBook. } Yes, the master-slave thing is bad because of the concurrency problem, but if the devices are slower than the bus by a large enough margin, it shouldn't be a big issue...
