Also to mention how outrageously priced that is, cheap 99p CF-IDE reader with a plastic chassis relabled Amiga and price inflated :griping:

You could get one that sits on a rear backplace for a couple of bucks:

As Orange has said they ate not hot swappable so you will need to remove/insert CF with the Amiga switched off and you would need to use an Amiga file system on the CF card so would need to use WinUAE to move the files to the CF on the PC.

If you have lots of money you could look at a USB solution like the Deneb (if you can find one) or a networking option.

This is all assuming you have an A4000, if you have a 1200/600 you can use PCMCIA/CF

All the best,

Steve.
