Subject:   Where to put the CD on an IDE system?

Yes, I know the purists in the UNIX world favor SCSI -- and I do, too --
but I'm configuring a system that has IDE/ATAPI and need to figure
out how best to distribute three devices among two IDE interfaces.

The machine will be a Web proxy. It'll have a system hard drive
(containing the OS and swap) and then a second very large one
to hold the cache. There's also a CD-ROM.

Which devices should go on which interface for the best
performance, and why?
