IDE - CD ROMs

I want to add an IDE CD ROM to a system currently configured with two 
IDE HDDs (One Master one Slave). I seem to recall IDE will only handle 
two drives max. Does the CD ROM pretend to be a slave drive and thus 
clash with the existing slave IDE HDD? 

Any advise gratefully received.
