I am in the process of getting a CF/IDE drive for my Linuxbios machine. I am in the US and was wondering where and which one to get. As i am in a rush and hate to impulse buy, i thought to ask what you thought.
so far its between one of these:
http://www.pcengines.ch/cflash.htm (US $20)
I have tried the CFDISK 1C and CDDISK D5 from PCEngines. The 1C works fine. The 5D is nice because it's so small, but the connector is kind of flimsy and didn't hold up too well to repeated use...

Haven't tried, but from looking at them I'd say they look great for a more "permanent" solution, but are probably more of a pain if you are removing the card a lot. They do look a lot sturdier than either of the PCEngines adaptors...
