Summing up:
I find it highly doubtful that there can be sufficient free room in the payload section of the 75KB KELF for the additional EE-side code needed to load and use HDD modules, even if they are stored as external IRX files. It is still untested AFAIK, but extremely doubtful.
Ah. *nods* I figured there was some reason it hadn't even been considered, but wasn't aware it was treated as a different class of I/O device than MC/USB. Good to know.
