Title: PCMCIA ATA card...[SOLVED]
Post by: Nickman on March 13, 2006, 02:38:01 PM

Would it be possible to make this work in an A1200 ?

SanDisk PC Card ATA (http://www.synchrotech.com/products/ata-flash_02.html)

(http://www.synchrotech.com/products/img/ataflash-afsd-01.jpg)

It shows up in Prepcard but it says it's write protected and an older version just say write error when i press prep card.

Information in prep card:
Device: I/O Device 250ns (700ns for the older one)
Information:
SanDisk
SDP
Version 4.1  5/3  0.6

Perhaps you should use an alternative .device (no suggestions..) and FAT95 from Aminet?

I will try this but it's for CF cards only ?
CFD (http://www.aminet.net/package.php?package=disk/misc/cfd.lha)

PrepCard is for SRAM (and PSRAM) cards only.  Try CFD it is your best bet getting it to work.  However, you won't be able to directly boot from the card.
