I am using a SD SDHC SDXC MMC memory card on IDE 2.5 Inches 44Pin Plug Adapter and not a CF card. it's smaller and you can flip it over so it does not get in the AGA MK2cr way.

here is the adapter.

I use it like this guy. you can see how it flipped over in the upper left corner of the system.

Yes, SD cards are more reliable, also easier to handle (my laptop has built-in SD reader). As for putting them inside my A1200 I do it this way:

Or even this way (you can see Indivision AGA on this photo as well):
