cimo Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 halloi am very fond of my PowerBook 1.33 , i really want to keep it as long as possible before switching to mac intel or whatever i may be interested in in the future.Therefore i am trying to squeeze my old lappy s juice, maximized ram 7200 Hd etc.I see that 2.5 IDE to SD card adaptor are quite cheap and 8 Gigs SD cards are also affordable, has anybody tried them out in a laptop? any experience?thanksSimone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jidis Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 Simone,I did that with a compact flash to IDE adapter and it sucked crap. ;Dhttp://www.midibox.org/forum/index.php/topic,9318.0.htmlThe adapter/card is right beside the laptop, still setup with 98Lite. I'm thinking about putting it back in tomorrow, just for the nice quiet aspect. I'm still wondering if there's a combination that doesn't perform like mine did. Maybe SD, or the Mac's drive bus, will act differently. I really like the idea. I see all those mini-laptop things are using solid state drives now. Maybe they'll get cost effective too (I don't really need but a couple gigs).Take Care,George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
