Hi,

If you have a IDE Standard 40 pin connector on the motherboard you can use that:

From ACS IDE to CF Adapter User s Manual:

Compact Flash cards use Flash Memory. Flash Memory has a limited number of Erase/Write cycles
~300,000. The controller in the Compact Flash card does wear leveling by spreading out the writes
amongst various 'sectors' in the card to prevent premature wearout of a sector.
Here's a link to the originator of the CF card that discusses how they 'wear level' the flash memory to
optimize card life: http://www.sandisk.com/pdf/oem/WPaperWearLevelv1.0.pdf
Digital cameras write to Compact Flash cards to store their photos. However, if you were to place a
pagefile or swapfile on the Compact Flash card, the intense write activity would very quickly exhaust the
life of the card.

Best regards,

Luciano
