Hello,

I just bought a 200M IDE drive and controler card for my 386sx. I
have four questions that hope someone can answer. 

Question #1: Can ST506 (MFM) drive co-exist with IDE drive? 

Question #2: Where I can get the program to measure the disk I/O 
	     rate and the benchmark of my system. Prefer from ftp site.

Question #3: Any recommendation for the IDE controlers? 

Question #4: How to modify the CMOS to match my hard drive. (Award BIOS)


Thank you in advance.
