Sir, I did not insult anyone until any I received an insult. I asked a
simple question and not one person directed me to the "real" answer. An IDE
card....

This group has tried to answer my question but can not....

Yes, the group has been quite polite in providing an answer--you just
don't
like the answer. I vote with the others--I don't think more than two IDE
on a
channel will work, but never having tried it, and being of rather limited
knowledge and experience, I'll not say its impossible. But I've never
seen a
four connector IDE ribbon data cable (SCSI, yes, but not IDE). And I can't
imagine mixing floppy and IDE cables. If a four connector IDE exists it
should
be easy to find doing a Goggle search--so search there rather than insult
this
group. And I know of a local cable fabricator that could make one for you
if
you insist--but I'd bet its a waste of your money.
