Wink Re: A1200 PATA EIDE hard drive?

I think he was talking to me :-). I have a CDRW drive in an external case hooked up with the Surf Squirrel SCSI.

Under what circumstances would the extra 4 pins on the HD IDE connector need a jumper?

This is again powered from the floppy connector, and amazingly it all works, though it is at the limit power-wise.
