There are dual CF adapters, I don't know if there are ide-sata adapters with two ports (I haven't seen any)
Years ago I reported that when you played a sound or ann mp3 and switched screens quickly the sound went bonkers and It started playing like "Andy and the chipmunks", perhaps something related to interrupt handling? I also noticed that in the first MorphOS versions the devices disconnected and you had to unplug and plug them back again and that in the next ones It crashed. I did a small program to test It.
