It was indeed done with IDE drives. There was a full length Microchannel
card (I forget what it was called) that had a single IDE channel and two
2.5 (or was it 3.5 1") HDDs on it.

there on the card with its provided screwholes. I think it
would be even cooler to combine a card like that with a really simple IDE
controller, and have the whole setup and drive on one card there.
Isn't that what used to be called a 'hardcard'? I've certainly seen ST506
controllers on a frame with a 3.5" ST506 drive, the whole thing plugging
into an ISA slot. I would be very suprised if it was never done with IDE
drives...
