Good luck - having to deal with (de)soldering the tiny SM resistors scares me a little. I can appreciate wanting to remove the SD altogether though.

For that reason I'm using a 64Gb OCZ in my workstation just as system / application drive (which is just big enough) with data stored separately on spinning drives. To replace all my data storage would cost me a fortune :( ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slackhead's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13963 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
