Unfortunately, I am out of IDE ports on the motherboard, and have no
remaining open expansion slots either. Might try a USB drive, but I'd much
rather find a software solution rather than a hardware one.

Is adding another disk completely out of the question? I have just
commissioned a new amanda server with an LTO-3 drive (60MB/s writing
speed), and I'm using a software-RAID0 on Linux in order to guarantee
bandwidth. That seems to work very fine so far. Since your holding
disk is a PATA drive, a second one should not be that expensive.
