Seems to be an interesting and (quite original) piece of hardware, I have 2 2.5" HD that have been sleeping in a box for 3 years and never backuped them because I was tired to dismount my A1200 again and again, this time with such a device it could be very easy to transfert all datas to my internal HD. :-)

The Amiga is limited to PCMCIA cards that A) are 16 bit and B) have Amiga drivers.

You can however use the PCMCIA to Compact Flash adapters. Those rock for file transfer from PC.
