Recommendation on CF card adapter with pins for A2000.

Nonefornow · 11 March 2024, 19:16

I am looking for a CF card adapter to use in an A2000 (replacing the existing one).

But I am interested in finding an adapter with the two pins to connect the HD activity cable to it.

The current adapter has a led that shows the HD activity, but it is not really visible from outside.

Any suggestions / recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you.

have the same type of CF card in a A2000 I just soldiered a wire to either side of the light and plug the wires into the light cable, works fine

Oh - thank you.

I see. Is it because it was just easier for you or because there aren't really any CF card with pins for connecting the hd activity cable?

In any case where did you solder the red and the black wires? Does the positioning matter?

I had looked didn't see any with a proper header when I looked, asked someone and they suggested to just put a wire on either side of the light so I did.
