You are describing the SparQ Parallel IDE Disk Drive from Syquest. Each 1.0

1.200.
The drive works without much fuss under RedHat Linux's generic kernel. You

Check the parallel section in the kernel - I know that Shuttle is
supported is most of the hardware Parallel->IDE equipment is with
Shuttle Chip.

Some CD-R's like HP Parallel CDR's (external) are just like this: An IDE
