if so please provide a link to where i can buy such a cable
Can you daisy chain two hard drives, a CD drive and a DVD drive off of a single cable?
You can, but you really wouldnt want to. Running four devices off of a single ATA slot will slow things down terribly. I would recoomend 2 devices on one channel, at MOST. Even better if you can put each device on its own channel.
Reply:I think this is possible using SCSI, this however is quite an old technology. You also need a SCSI controller to do this.

Reply:Yes. You'll need to check the configuration settings and setup both drives to CS (Cable Select), or else setup one of the drives as master and one as slave. Google "ide cable" to see lots of cables. Select one with two 40-pin connectors and 80 data wires, as in the link below. Good luck...
