It connects to an existing IDE interface as either master or slave. To configure, simply enter a single jumper setting. AIWA BOLT uses Travan drive hardware and records on Travan 3 cartridges, although with a different format. I guess I'll be the guinea pig and send it to you if it can't be made to work.
