it'd be a fairly complicated schematic... The IDE interface is 16 bit
wide data, and a standard parallel port only has four bits of input.
An enhanced parallel port (EPP) can turn the data bits around, but
then you don't have any lines for RD*/WR*/A0-A2/CS1Fx*CS3Fx*, etc...
I certainly wouldn't want to do it, though I'm sure it can be done...

Evening folks, I am looking for a circuit using the
parallel port on a
pc to Ide interface, does anyone have a schematic for one?
I also have 20 (2.5 in) toshiba 4.8 gig drives (new and in sealed
antistatic). these are 2 mm interface ata4 44pin that I will offer to
sell to the group before listing them at ebay. ($75 ea + shipping)
I also have AMD K6-2 233 AFR Socket 7 processors (new) these also will
be offered to the group for ($20 ea), before I place them on ebay as
well.
I am going to put them up in two weeks, so if any one is interested
please email me at
