Hard drive converters

[tone007]

CF is fine if you're just playing a few games or something, but if you need real performance you need something more suited to the job, like the SSD or a -gasp- real hard drive.

A good CF card + PFS3 is a wicked combination for classics. 3.9 on my A1200 is booting in a few seconds, Mac filedisks are also lightning fast. Performance will be around the controller's maximum, the SanDisk Extreme IV should cope even with the CSPPC/MKIII UW-SCSI. ;-)

Advantages: Cheap (in smaller sizes), silent, low temperature, low power consumption, low seek time, longevity, small physical size, performance blows away ancient SCSI/IDE drives typically found in older classics, easily removable for swapping files between computers

Disadvantages: 32MB largest size, still expensive in larger sizes, cost of CF card + adapter for SCSI applications

Sorry, what isnt compatible with BPPC?

I was referring to a SCSI-SATA converter here:

I'm not sure about the compatibility though, anyone have a guess or answer?
