1. SuperDriver will allow this and if you are running a Cloud-9 distribution you should have all the descriptors to talk to all the devices. 

2. Yes. Just don't plug them in with power applied or move/bump them, you had a blown CPLD, which has been the only failure I have seen on the SuperIDE. 

3. Sure they will in a good system.

Hi. 

This quesion is for Mark or Boisey, but if others know the answer please feel 
free to chime in. I have a TC3 and a SUper IDE card. A SCSI HD is connected 
to the TC3 and a SD card is plugged into the Super IDE. I can boot RSDOS and 
Nitros from the SuperIDE, but can only boot RSDOS with the TC3. I am not 
knowlegable enough to fix the broken Nitros on the SCSI drive. My data is on 
the SCSI HD and I want to copy it to the logical drives setup on the SuperIDE 
SD card. 
1) Can I do this. 
2) Can I plug both into the MPI w/o smoking something (Mark, I am sure you 
will recall that I did smoke the SuperIDE which you fixed, but I have 
absolutely no idea how I did it and I SURE do not want to do that again). 
3) neither allow me to access the actual floppies. Ofcourse there may be other 
issues there. I have either the TC3 or the SuperIDE plugged into slot 3 on the 
MPI and the Disto FD controller with the special ROMs plugged into slot 4. BTW 
I am running a CoC3, 512k memory and buffered bus protection. If you need any 
further information, I will be happy to provide it. TIA
