At this point, I just wanted to make sure the firmware and the design
would support it. I don't know if it makes sense to do so.
But, there are 2 IDE connectors on each cable. And, there is a "bank
switch" on the board. So, if I designed the firmware right, you could
plug two of the larger boards into the 2 IDE slots, set one to be bank
2, and then have 8 slots.
The pinout on the IDE cables will support a unit with up to 16 slots,
though I am not sure that is physically feasible.
