Mega ST2 & SatanDisk, a nightmare

After finishing some upgrades to my ST2: 4MB, TOS 1.04 and Int/Ext drive swapping I was eager to try a SatanDisk and finally enjoy a fine looking machine. No way, I have two Satan and none of them work, I mean, they work but they ended corrupting the SD, always, no SD survived the experience.

 

I've need to rewrite the SD countless times, rendering the device as totally unusable, half an hour and it doesn't boots anymore and all partitions are lost.

 

I know about the "bad DMA" fact; but I'm not sure if it's an absolutely true story or maybe there's a little myth around it; so, there's a way to make the SatanDisk work with these machines or I need to start thinking in dumping the Satan and use a Gotek drive instead (that's why I modded the drive swapping)?
