CF vs. SD

@Curtis....

Since I'm still trying to come up with a reliable solution for an OS3.9 HDD, I'm very interested in your outcome.

What SCSI adapter are you using?
Have you tested the speed thru the SCSI to IDE bridge? It would be good to know this.

Which SCSI to IDE bridge did you install, AmigaKit, ACard, other, manufacturer?

Did you get the SCSI2SD V6.0 board? There's a guy on EAB that measured 1.85 MB/sec using an A2091. After he applied the 14MHz hack to the A2091 he now gets 2.4 MB/sec consistently. Not too shabby.
BTW, did you use the new GUI to configure your SCSI2SD?

Here's the kicker.... will both of these HDD adapters be recognizable from the Emergency Repair Disk (ERD) floppy? That's the big MUST, unless you're using some magical backup solution that you can restore a bootable backup to your SYS partition, in my case anyway.

Let us know how you get on please.

I have CF and SD in Mechy SCSI card readers on both my A500 and A2000.

Schnykies! I keep forgetting I have a Mech SCSI reader in my A590! I need to move this to my A2000! :lol: Hey Mike, can I PM you later to get how you created the mount lists for this? Do all the card slots show up with an ERD when they have cards in them? Is the Mech reader the only HDD device in your A2K? This would be perfect for OS and SYS B/U if they do.

This thread reminds me that I've still got a 2091 sitting on my shelf, halfway done with the 14MHz hack.  Maybe one of these years I'll get around to finishing it!  :rofl:

Halfway? LOL.... Git 'er done! :roflmao: Actually, I have one of these too... I'm one to talk!

Acill's setup looks pretty sweet too! Acill, ever think about selling these pre-made up as a kit?

I noticed my mouse wouldn't move.  Looks like my (*@%&$#?@!%&$#?@!%&$#?@!$( coworker bumped my Cocolino with his chair and broke off the connector.

That wasn't nice!!!!  :angryfire::uzi:

Hope you get 'er fixed!
