Hello all

I'm working on a PIC16F877 IDE hard drive interface
and I was wondering if someone could suggest a good
type of parallel RAM that I could put right on the IDE
bus to hold the next 512 bytes of info that I'm
reading/writing to the hard drive.  I've never used
parallel ram before, but I think this should work
right?

I have 2 or 3 spare pins on the F877 so I would be
able to control the CS pin of the ram or whatever it
uses.  What about pulling some RAM from an oldschool
video card (it's in sockets)?

Any help/info/ideas would be appreciated.

Cheers
