Currently PicoIDE only emulates one drive, but the hardware is capable of supporting two devices simultaneously. Enabling this is a priority for development after the PicoIDE is released.
Can you add [hardware feature]?
The current hardware design is locked in, but who knows what the future may bring.
Will PicoIDE work in my device?
The primary development/testing platform for PicoIDE is 90s-era PCs, but PicoIDE has a high level of compatibility with the ATA and ATAPI standards, so there's a good chance it will work in your device. If your device is particularly finicky, that sounds like a fun development challenge!
What about UDMA support?
In the interest of providing a cost-effective design, PicoIDE's hardware doesn't support UDMA, but faster systems are very well served in the area of fast HDD replacements by CF, SD, and M.2 to IDE adapters, and for optical, PicoIDE's MWDMA mode 2 and PIO mode 4 support is as fast as a 52X CD-ROM drive, plenty for fast systems.
Will there be a 5.25" or 2.5" version?
PicoIDE will launch with a 3.5" enclosure only, but depending how things go, other form factors may be made available.
Where will I be able to purchase a PicoIDE? How much will it cost?
As said above, PicoIDE will be launching at Crowd Supply, and other suppliers will carry PicoIDE once the campaign is complete. Pricing will be announced when the campaign is live. If you're familiar with PicoGUS, you know I value making attainable hardware.
