a8isa1 Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I recently came across this IDE to SD adapter (see below). I was curious if anyone has any experience with such devices a) in general and b) specifically with an internal MyIDE interface. Anyone? Comments? A friend has already committed to giving it a try with MyIDE but I'm curious about any experiences people may have had. Thanks. - Steve Sheppard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I have used something close to that with no problems at all. The the price on the one your looking at is quite high IMHO.

Interesting, I haven't found any cheapter but compared to the USB reader ($4.20 USD delivered) it is a bit expensive. Still, $16 USD for this adapter and about $7 for a 2 GB SD card isn't terrible. - Steve Sheppard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if I should get one also. I did get one in, but haven't got an SD card to test it with yet. However, Sijmen (authour of the MyIDE ROM) has posted over at the Atarimax forums. Several people have failed to get the device to work. Sijmen is looking into the cause for the incompatibility. Stephen Anderson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
