Ummm... what?
Floppy controllers (FDD stands for Floppy Disk Drive and FDC stands
for Floppy Disk Controller) most certainly do NOT control Hard Drives
and CD-ROM drives now, or at any point in the past that I'm aware of.
SATA is the current ATA standard for Hard Drives and CD-ROMs, IDE was
the previous standard and is still in use to a degree on current MBs.
SAS is the current SCSI standard, though a LOT of older SCSI
controllers are still in use as well... you can't beat a good, cheap
U360 card.
But in any case, the FDD Controller does NOT control any hard drives
or optical drives.
