Already running my system (DOS/WIN3.x/FreeBSD) with SCSI drive
connected on SC200. Now I would like to add cheap big IDE drives.

If I change the scan order to (SCSI/IDE) , what will be the order
first all SCSI and then all IDE's (visible for DOS/WIN3.x)?

Further, is the FreeBSD ide driver with bus-mastering? Should be for
performance! 

Anybody out there any experiences?!

Thanks in advance

please mail to ralph@first.gmd.de
