Looking to use a CF boot drive. I have read the speed is only 2.5Mb/s, a bit slow for a boot drive! Is it a correct number?

CF = slow
Built-in IDE = slow

What do you want? Want fast? Get an accelerator with onboard SCSI.

Good on them, I wouldn't post an "exact" spec either, since there's so many variables involved. But YMMV. :lol:

Amigakit answered. Fastest is 6Mb/s. The one at Amigastore.eu is 16.6Mb/s and is $3 less. Big difference.

I'll eat my hat if you get 16.6MB/s out of the stock motherboard IDE header. :lol:
