    Try this...No charge, lol

    You can replace the leds with a transistor relay. No moving parts and just as fast as the activity on the line. You could then power the leds from another source and they would be brighter.

    Read the thread closer, other people suggested it, he hesitated before talking about it, and has been nothing but nice about it. Singling him out as a 'pr!ck' could very well get your access removed, and I hope it does.

    (noob) question

    I was thinking about IDE cables with 2 headers: if you hook up a led on pin 77-78 on the upper head, and a led on pin 39-40 on the second head, can you get independant blinking from 1st and 2nd device?

    it would be easy to have independant blinking if you bypass the second header with the led and a diode therefore only when the drive the header is connected to goes high will it light and the front acivity led should still show both correctly :)

    maybe I should patent my modification? :hehe: LOL :hehe:
