Cables

[munruss]

Do they sell a ribbon cable that has 3 terminals? I would like to attach three hard drives to a single controller. Is this possible?

No. Get a IDE controller

2 for IDE is max. You'll need one of these

the only ribbon cable with more than 2 terminals is a scsci one ...
I had one with 5 !

Actually, I have a floppy cable with 4, 2 for 5¼ and 2 for 3½, so that either one can be the A drive and the other the B drive. 2 before and 2 after the twist.

But you can only have two drives on an ide channel.
