EIDE and IDE on same cable??

[dalfollo]

Are there any issues if i have a EIDE (45GB IBM Deathstar) and 1.2GB IDE HD on the same cable (namely the IDE#3 on a KT7-RAID w/o RAID setup)

Is there a rule about not mixing and matching on the same cable?

Why don't you put it in another cable, like on your RAID controller?

Right now it is on the RAID IDE#3b, but seems to cause problems preventing boot...here's the setup:

IDE1: TDK CDRW;Empty
IDE2: DVD -ROM; ZIP250
IDE3: a:IBM 45GB (XP Pro/Program Files); and the Conner 1.2GB if i can
IDE4: WD 80GB (Data HD); Seagate 80GB (Data + Install Drive)


I was just wondering as the 45GB is like 100 and the smaller drive is 33 i think...i had it running previously on it's own cable and was fine...
