Hi,

Just received my V1200 (already a very happy 500V2 owner).
Can someone recommend a CF/SD to IDE adapter that will sit happily on the V1200 in the trapdoor and still allow for the trapdoor to close properly. Don't really want one with a cable. Some of the right angled ones I have seen so far look like they may be too tall,

Regards,

Z

This specific accessory is ALWAYS out of stock.......maybe Edu Arana should build at least 1000 and not a dozen......

Thanks, that's exactly what I want, but yes...out of stock :-(

Does anyone know on any other alternatives that will fit comfortably?

If you are strong enough, you can insert the CF card into the connector to the opposite "upside down" position. Normally it is not possible, because side leading rails block inserting card to wrong position. :-)
    Pin 1 on adapter is on same side as pin 1 on card.

How come no one ever talks about the mSATA to ide adapters?

If for nothing other than automatic wear leveling, and availability.

Interestingly, I ordered two but the CFCard will not insert over the top of the component in C11, there is not sufficient clearance :-(

Simply desolder (or destroy) the C11 and replace it with a new one with longer legs (leads).

That's certainly a solution, but I'd rather just plug the card into the adapter ;-)

For Amiga 1200 internal IDE ideal solution is dual CF adapter in HDD form factor.

The adapter we discussed is more suitable for the V1200 IDE port.
