Your right!  I tried it and it doesn't work.  Says, "/dev/scd0 is not 
supported for hdparm."  So, do emulated IDE-SCSI devices talk a 
different way that guarantees fast throughput, equal or better than IDE 
with DMA access enabled?  Is there a way to test it?

Would you just time a large transfer of data via both devices?
