Quality


I'm very happy with this product and would recommend it to anyone.


I wish i could find a larger size card that would work with the performa, but i'm just happy its working.


◄ i'm not impressed with the technical support i received when i contacted them!


I have gotten decent speed results with the sandisk 4gb 30mb/s cards.

Shipping


81 with free shipping when i purchased this.


I’m using a sandisk extreme cf card and it is fast.

Packaging/appearance


I took some of the packaging material, cut it to fit on the underside, and mounted it inside the server it boots where the original hd was.


The cons:- not hot pluggable, meaning the computer has to be powered off to insert or remove the cfc.

Competitiveness


We used a more expensive startech adapter for the front facing bays, but didn't need one for the infrequent setups/formats.


- advertised - backed by a startech.

    Some configuration issues on an older 386sx board with phoenix bios


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The machine has been running about 1 week and no issues


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I don’t have benchmarking software but booting and launching programs is 23x faster than using the hard drive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I took one star from the value because the back of the board is completely exposed


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It has no protection from grounding out the board


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Worked great with my 486 replacing a broken ide drive


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However it doesnt have any mounting solution and attaches via a cable not directly to the ide connection on the board so it flops around until you find a way to mount it yourself


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Ive seen some reviews here and elsewhere report that their adapters have caught fire and the solder bridge on pins 4142 was to blame
