The ISO standard for IDE data transmission is 36", so you're 12" short of your goal. That actualy has more to do with the data frequency a specific chipset uses, as some servers achieve a 48" length through higher power consumption transimssion.
The short answer though is that without a signal boster, you'l not get far. Try googling for IDE signal boster, though it's sound like something with such a low demand to not be readily availible.
Sorry.
