Works Good!: Memory Card Adapter

Low profile converter used to replace the pat drive in a portable device. Helps reduce weight and reduce the risk of hard drive damage from impact. Works perfectly!

Pros
  • Computers and Accessories
Cons
  • Low Repairability

Value for money

This worked really well, if I had to complain it was the lack of a pre-drilled hole for the screws. This was easily solved by drilling my own holes, but one of the circuit leads was awfully close to where the holes should go. Installed on a 3D printed cover/bracket for an Amiga 1200 backplate. The pins for the jumper on the bottom were a bit long and had to be 3D printed to change to fit. However, it's okay.

Pros
  • Memory card adapter
Cons
  • No automatic

Poor card and IDE compatibility

I've tried several old and new CF cards, but only my Transcend 133x works at all. On my Dell 440bx based laptop the card is recognized after about a minute of waiting. After that, it accesses the card with no problem, but cannot boot from it. Any other card (mostly different Sandisk cards) doesn't recognize it at all. The problem as I see it is that this adapter is totally dependent on IDE CF card mode. The adapter basically does nothing other than serve as a male adapter for two devicesโ€ฆ

Pros
