Eric, No. The SST ATA-Disk Module is less than $20 US.

Is write-protect on an ATA Flash PC Card a new thing? It's a relatively new development. My understanding is, that CF PC Card (PCMCIA) devices that support write protect don't run in true IDE mode. The newer secure memory types may be supported as a bootable device. CF 1.4 specifications. http://www.compactflash.org/cfspc1_4.pdf Note: we have links to flash disks and adapters in our web links section of our web site. http://leaf-project.org/links.php?menu=2 -- Mike Noyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://sourceforge.net/users/mhnoyes/ http://leaf-project.org/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: OSDN - Tired of that same old cell phone?
