Kickflash Board
« on: January 04, 2004, 01:16:04 PM »
Hi All

Have just been on KDH's website and seen an advert for something called Kickflash. Ive never heard of this before, what is it and will there be a PCI version?

Does anyone have one? does it work? is it any good?

And all other general questions.....

Thanks
Mark

AFAIK this has been dropped (too bad, I would've loved this thing) in Favor of this:

The KickflashOS4, a Z2/3 board.

Quote:
Due to the high demand, Kickflash OS4, which has been announced on June 2nd, has been revised. The base version now has 1MB of flash memory, and can be expanded to 1GB on an expansion port. Transfer rates can be compared to normal harddrives, but the common access times of mechanical mass-storage media practically don't exist on flash memory: On random access, so-called solid-state memory is about tenthousand times faster than common harddrives.

Kickflash OS4 is a Zorro-card that's compatible with all Zorro-2 and Zorro-3 systems. The new base price for the board is 34,90 EUR. Prices for expansions are not yet available.
