PM3 and PM6 work OK when the drive is plugged into another machine. 
And, I have tried the HDDs plugged  into the cable without the racks.

To further stir the pot, the BIOS boot sequence is set floppy-CD 
ROM-Hard Disk.  It will boot from FDD and HDD.  I have several 
bootable CDs including Symantec System Works, DFSEE, eCS 1.1.  None of 
them boot.

Both W4 and eCS install, booted from install floppies, install stops - 
I assume - at the point where it first attempts to access the CD.

The CD drive is accessible after booting from FDD or HDD.
