I don't know of any cards that can actually be used either way (either
as a plain memory card, or as an ATA device).  As far as I know, they
are either one or the other.  All PCMCIA ATA devices are supposed to
support a memory mapped access mode, but that just puts the ATA
registers in memory space instead of IO space.
