Quote from: tonyvdb;800122So been thinking with SSD drives becoming the norm I was going to try one on my Video Toaster Flyer. Is there such a thing as an affordable SCSI to SATA adapter? Ive seen some but they are well over $100 and that seems outrageous.[/QUOTEThey were affordable(the 7720u,7722,7720uw etc) were affordable and downright cheap on the used market for many years, but they have been snapped up by everyone and are more costly now. the 7730a was for 68pin uwscsi to sata. i currently use it in my 4k with a samsung 850 pro ssd. there is the same thing under addonics name(i think i got it for $79? new a year or 2 ago). addonics # is ADSALVD160 just a rebadged acard. the firmware upgrades work on it from acard site. you might find a good price with some google digging. any of the above would work to use a cf in a ide to cf adapter(except 7730a and addonics which is sata).another option might be:http://www.ebay.com/itm/CF-AztecMonster-CF-3-5inc-SCSI-Converter-New-Condition-for-Vintage-Computer-/301820877738?hash=item4645ed1baa:g:F3MAAOSw1XdUXEEpNot any cheaper though ;/I dont think the scsi2sd will work for a flyer, its pretty darn slow:http://shop.codesrc.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=58i think amigakit sells these cheaper,at least i believe it to be the same thing. they run maybe 2 MB/s so it may be too slow for video.Hi, I have bought acard 7730a and samsung 850 pro 128gb but my CSMKIII (DCE rev.4) does not find the hd. I´ve formatted hd in winuae, used two active terminators on both sides but nothing shows up in hdtoolbox or the scsi tool. Can you please share how you did the setup?
