[Coco] SuperIDE and CF Cards

[Mark Marlette]

Gustavo,

We tested many different makes and models.....No problems.

With that said, I know for sure we didn't test them all.

The device follows the spec.

Have you verified that the result of the dd clone is REALLY a clone? Disk compare?

Ed has his CFs in here now and his process that he used. One of his 256MB, Transcends DO NOT have enough sectors to accept the image. Even though they are all 256MB CFs, they all have different number of sectors.


SideWalk is not creating a clone.

I use WinHex Pro version. 

Regards,

Mark

Hi,

I'm learning how to use the SuperIDE. It is amazing product to use with
coco.

Now I would like to use another CF card, so I won't mess with the original
one.

I tried to use a 4Gb Transcend (133x) card. I know I won't use/need full
4GB, but this was the only one I had free.

I copied the original card with DD command into the new one. It worked, but
eventualy the Color Computer just freezes of starts to display random
garbage. When I use the original card it works flawlessy!

Which brands of CF cards works with SuperIDE? Would it work with 512MB
Sandisk cards (model SDCFH-512-903)?

Thank you very much!
