(1) Question: Could I connect CDROM or CDRW to the HPT370/372 IDE
controller?
Answer:
The 1.11.0512 version driver of HPT370 card and
later version driver will no longer support ATAPI
devices. The 1.11.0402 version BIOS of HPT370 card
and later version BIOS will no longer support ATAPI
devices. All other P-ATA HPT controller will not
support ATAPI device.
