I am already running many systems now with Sandisk compact flash cards stuck into those advantech adaptors that let you plug them into the IDE chain. Does such an adaptor exist that would let me _elegantly_ plug a sandisk compact-flash card into a laptop, replacing the 2.5" disk that already sits there ? When I say "elegantly", I mean that the adaptor itself would be the form factor of a 2.5", 9mm disk so that it would just pop in like a 2.5" disk would, and not require physical modification or bracing on my part (I have already stuck one in with duct tape. lame.) thanks! _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message
