source of IDE-Sandisk modules? (modified 0 times) nullbert Anybody know of a supplier of an IDE compatible Sandisk, like the one in this unit? if it took the removable compact flash units, even better! 06-20-2000 11:43:36

RE:source of IDE-Sandisk modules? (modified 0 times) DaDuc Profile Try www.sandisk.com or any good embedded systems provider 06-21-2000 21:23:58

RE:source of IDE-Sandisk modules? (modified 0 times) greghol Yeah, its called Compact Flash. :) You just need to wire the 40 pin IDE to the 50 pin Compact Flash and you have a FLASH IDE drive. You can build an adaptor or buy them. Greg 06-28-2000 17:03:53

RE:source of IDE-Sandisk modules? (modified 0 times) silver944 Buy.com stocks them, but >>-->THEY ARE EXPENSIVE<--<<. You will probably be better off (or at least wealthier) thinking about putting your stuff on one of the chips that goes into an adapter that plugs into the USB. 64 Megs of flash goes for $130 delivered these days. 06-28-2000 17:43:21

RE:source of IDE-Sandisk modules? (modified 0 times) nullbert To clarify, what I'm looking for is a Compact Flash *carrier* card, that has a 40 pin ide connection on it... so you can plug a CF card into it and treat it as a removable HD, the motherboard's bios sees it as a hard drive. I think I remember seeing pictures of these once, but never found a supplier. 06-29-2000 09:00:53

RE:source of IDE-Sandisk modules? (modified 0 times) gr8brit I suppose that I'm going to add to the list of people who say "try the BBS SEARCH feature!", but I'm not going to be as mean as the others, and I'll actually help you out. Look at this thread (the bottom of it) http://www.linux-hacker.net/cgi-bin/UltraBoard/UltraBoard.pl?Action=ShowPost&Board=technical&Post=1083&Idle=&Sort=&Order=&Page=&Session= Or try looking at this page: http://www.pcengines.com/cflash.htm Should be just what you are looking for.
