I think what everyone was talking about in regurads to a previous post was my lil Drive in a A4000T:

This is a 40-pin version, but they make a 44-pin job as well.  A lot smaller and less heat then the one that has the looks of a 2.5" drive AND they also go up to 4-gig in size... :-D

wow that's a cool drive, how many inches? :) thought size doesn't really matter ;) is it costy? ..another medium to consider, makes me confused! hehe



If you read the conversation under the pic, you'll find the lead to the info you need.  The down side is I don't know how to order these.  I ordered mine through a friend that works for Simpletech.

I remember it not being all that cheap.  The main info is that it has a burst write speed of 20Mb a second (not that the Amiga could do that) and standard 5Mb read/write.

The other interesting thing is that they make them leaning to the left (like mine) leaning to the right or standing strait up depending on your needs.

*EDIT*

Just tried to find the info myself and came up goose egg.  They may not make these any more :(

*EDIT EDIT*

Just did an ehaustive search and found the correct part # to google.  If you are really into this drive and it's types, do a search for : SLFDM40LPV

That's the 40-pin version, but where they sell the 40-pin, they'll also have the 44-pin.  becareful not to get a Vert. one...  :rtfm:

Oh, and here is you tech sheet:
