Yes, but make sure you set the jumper to MASTER.

Have a look at this USB to IDE cable with power supply.

seavixen32: Thanks for the web link. I was thinking the other day about using a couple of old IDE hdd's as external drives. I probably could purchase one of those apparaat's locally. I hesitate to buy it because all of the USB ports on my pc are being used. The only available port is on an external USB hub that I have. Do you think using a port on the hub would slow down the playback of music or a dvd film from a IDE hdd?

I honestly don't know whether using a USB port would slow things down, but no doubt someone more knowledgeable than me will tell us.
If you have a spare slot in your motherboard you can get USB PCI cards very cheaply.

Thanks for the advice but I'd rather not go that route.
