Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Syba Ultra Ide To Cf Adapter Dual Ide 40/44PIN To Compact Flash
Customer Review: Does what it's supposed to do
Summary: 4 Stars
This Compactflash to IDE adapter works fine. It accepts a CF card and converts the pinout to either a 2.5" (laptop) or 3.5" (desktop) IDE male connector. Your existing IDE cable (female end) just plugs into this adapter as it normally would for a hard drive. Power for the adapter can be supplied thru 3 options:
1. a 3.5" power connector (i.e. a floppy drive power connector from your PC's power supply)
2. the 44pin (2.5" IDE) data cable, since it supplies 5V
3. via the 40 pin (3.5") IDE cable (only if 5V is supplied by the motherboard on pin 20). Note that this is only supported by some motherboards, so for the most part you'd want to power it either of the above two options.
There are jumpers to set Master/Slave IDE settings, CF voltage (3V or 5V, most CF cards should work on the default 5V setting), and CF power source (External via the floppy power connector/44pin cable OR pin 20 on the 40pin cable as mentioned above).
There are also 3 LEDs to show Power, CF Detected, and Activity status. The nice thing is each LED is a different color so it's easy to see what's going on.
The CF card must be pushed in/pulled out by hand to install/remove. There is no eject lever. Note that CF cards CANNOT be hot-plugged or removed while in operation, damage or data corruption would most likely occur.
One interesting thing about CF->IDE adapters is that people claim some types don't support DMA (for faster data transfer). This is purely a function of the CF card, not the adapter - the IDE controller integrated on the CF card determines whether DMA is supported, not the CF->IDE adapter.
