BTW Jim, if you run the www.oldschool.org site I have
to say thanks for
putting that together, the Tandy 1000 Shrine that links off that page is the
reason I own an expanded Tandy 1000HX now.
Glad I could help! And to bring things back on-topic in a roundabout way, I
finally found an 8-bit ISA IDE controller that claims to support
regular/traditional IDE drives up to the typical BIOS/DOS limit of 540MB.
Assuming it works, I will be happy to perform benchmarks against it and the
WD1002/ST-225 combo currently installed and report them back to the group.
