SATA to IDE adapter for A1200 & FastATA Mk5
« on: October 18, 2020, 09:53:57 AM »
I'm thinking of putting the 500gb SATA 2.5" drive I have lying around, that came out of my PS4, into the Amiga.

Obviously, it's SATA and I need to connect to an IDE interface (A1200 FastATA Mk5).

I've heard of some of the SATA to IDE adapters not working, so I'm really not sure what to buy.

Can anyone recommend an adapter that does the job with no issues?

Thanks for the replies.

I've copied a lot of CDs onto my 160gb drive, but it's not full. Maybe I'm thinking more about the life left in my 160gb drive (I had an identical one of exactly the same age which died) and the 500gb drive is much newer and literally lying around at the moment.

I'll have a look at those auctions.

Thanks again! :)
