I remember using them back in the day. I found a couple in my stuff.
One is a LBA PRO by Unicore software and the other is AMIDISK V1.1 IDE 
extension by American Megatrends. I think these were to allow larger disks
but could be to support IDE or a second IDE since in the same bag is an IDE
board without BIOS on it.

Looks like you can by a modern version
