My new SSD! Transcend 4Gb IDE Flash Module

Just managed to get this installed today. It's really neat. Partitioned and formatted with HDInstTools, and restored from LHA archives stored on my PC via ethernet card and boot floppy.

The little bit of PCB sticking out of the RF modulator unfortunately stuck out a bit too much and I had to file about 1mm off the corner, which was a pain because I already tried it for size in an A600 where it fits without modification. Oh well. It gave me a reason to take the shield off so I inspected all the caps while I was there (no visible leakage). The keyboard is a little forwards here so you can see it. It fits straight onto the 44 pin header on the motherboard. No cables.

Here it is from the other side so you can see the logo. The keyboard is in its proper place here. It nestles in there nice and snug.
