Standard setup on a PC these days:
system = primary master
Audio =  secondary master

Older versions of MS operating systems would only boot from the primary
master I believe but XP may be more flexible. At one time putting non-DMA
CD drives on the same channel as a DMA hard-drive could slow down the drive
but these days everything is DMA and mixing CD drives and hard-drives on
the same channel is no problem.
