I am planning to us this ide to flash adapter:
emagic
I will use it with a 4 gig compact flash card from kingston or twinmos.
1. Anyone tried this before? Will it work at all? I want to boot xp from this device.
2. What is the performance of a flash drive?.. transferrates are pretty low (about 10 MB/sec) but seek times should be ok, right?
Any info is welcome!
Thanx.
Arghh! it seems as if a flash drive is NOT suitable for this because a flash card will be "worn out" quickly by all the reads and writes XP would make.
i would still apreciate any input from YOU.
