Hey all,

Has anyone succeded in installing and using 2 physical parallel hard
drives as master and slave on a single external emclosure via USB2 or
firewire?

What's an 'emclosure', Mugzee ? What'ya hear, what'ya say ?

Guessing you're meaning PATA hard drives, and you meant "enclosure".

All the enclosures I've seen can only physically hold one hard drive. They
default to looking for a master (master alone for WD). Powered and
unpowered versions probably don't supply enough amperage for two.

If enclosures for containing two such hard drives exist, don't understand
why it would be a problem.
