Speed is not an issue, it just has to function.  I just built a new box 
and added a DVD; so it is now two HDD, a CD and a DVD.  So I want to 
bump the ZIP down to a card, possibly with a small HDD.

I have a SIIG Ultra 66. I plugged a HDD into first master and ZIP as 
first slave.  First no-go is Guest, the DOS driver, can't find the ZIP. 
  ZIP works OK under OS/2.  SIIG said "sorry".  The box says it supports 
ZIP.

If the HDD is plugged in DOS, W98SE and OS/2 can all access it. 
However, OS/2 boot stops after DANIS506 and SDDHELP because of "lost 
messages".  If I run SIO, after SDDHELP it doesn't just stop, it crashes.
