A600/1200 IDE to CF storage card adapter. The CF card runs in "true IDE
mode", and looks like an IDE harddisk to the computer.
Patch for
Hdtoolbox for the "unit is not a disk. type 7." problem. I think
that this is because some bit from the CF card identifies the card
as some kind of removable media. I think some CF card manufacturer
might offer have software (most likely for doswintelpc)
to change that bit inside the card???
Note: The CompactFlash specifications say that the input logic high
voltage level should be at least 90% of Vcc. When using 5 volt supply,
it should be between 4.5..5 volts. However, compact flash memory card
manual from Sandisk tells, that a 2.4 volts at the input is
acceptable. In practise this kind of IDE to CF-card adapters seem to
work even without any voltage level adjustment.
