It has an Acard ARC760 chip on it which is an Ultra SCSI (20MHz) bridge chip. It should be identical to a similar Acard bridge with a IDE->CF adapter on it, which is very fast.

Should be a good match to the BlizzardPPC.

Nice! The Acard chips are very compatible + very fast.

I think they will send out of USA you just have to ask for postage cost.

Quote:
May not ship to United Kingdom - Read item description or contact seller for shipping options.
Also there are these following bits on their listing.

Quote:
International customers are responsible for any customs' duties, taxes, or any other fees incurred by the customs of their own country
Quote:
I declare the "customs value" very low to help my buyer avoid the higher importing fees and customs duties.
They also have a website it looks where it's $5 less. Although it might be worth buying of eBay to use Paypal protection unless you can use Paypal on their site?

I have had some of the best performance off the ARC760-B - based Aztec Monster series, both CF and SATA. I have one of the above boards, and I had less than stellar success with it on WDC33C93A SCSI products. Unfortunately, I had to pack much of it away while testing because I moved this spring, and I haven't brought it out of storage for testing on the A4000T SCSI. I suggest having a return option in case you have issues. The website in the link above matches the name on the e-mails I traded with the person at the time (Zaher), and they were pleasant to work with. I'm the one that dropped the ball on going further, so I made no effort to resolve the issues. Maybe this fall.
