If i am correct, i could unplug my IDE-CF adapter and plug this IDE SSD-drive in my short IDE cable..., and Bob's my unkle!
![]() http://www.centralpoint.nl/flashgehe...FVDMtAodbxQAsg Question 1. Will Bob really become my unkle... (will this work?) or... ![]() Question 2. Is this really better/more reliable than a good >4Gb CF-card? ![]() |

Should work fine. I have also bought a similar SSD, although just 16GB, for my 1200.
Regarding reliability, I don't really know which is better. It all depends on the quality of the flash cells and the wear leveling algorithms used in the two. I don't think that CF drives are designed to run as system drives though, but then again, is anyone using their Amiga heavily today, e.g. as a busy server for something? |

Should work. Might be better off buying a 1.8" ide ssd though if you haven't already bought one. Do you really need 32gb though? That is a lot for an Amiga computer. I just bought two 1.8" form factor ide ssd drives, 1 is 8gb and the other is 16gb. I think I will struggle to fill them up.

I am still waiting to receive it, so haven't actually tried it yet. I expect to use PFS3-AIO, but still not entirely sure what version of scsi.device I will use. I will probably try some different versions.

A 1.8" form factor drive is smaller and doesn't use as much wattage. 6 by 7 by 0.8cm. A drive could be fixed at the back next to the floppy drive.
