Hacking SuperCard CF

[armasmike]

Does any one have a working SuperCard CF for sell. I want to a do this http://www.natrium42.com/blog/?p=39 but use a 1.8 hard drive that use 3.3v.

But i need a SuperCard CF because they still update this stuff.

I should have 1 or 2 to let go in 2 weeks or earlier, just waiting for slot-1 replacements to arrive.

Can the Supercard Cf software see a 20gb 1.8 hard drive?

After you get a zif to cf then use a ide cable from the cf on the supercard to the cf on the other end.

Will it see that size ?

my supercard cf is slightly faulty so that might have something to do with it

I'm pretty sure the SC-CF is limited to FAT16, so it's only going to see 4gb if it works at all.

i read some where that if you format it with 64k clusters you can get it to see more then 4gb.

I want to know is this worth my time to get all the parts and then at the end it still only sees 4gb.

Is this just a wast of time ?

I am guessing if one could do it, it would have been done by now.

Looking at the set up yea because it is not worth it for all that hassle. Plus, sdhc cards are getting much bigger and I believe 40 gigs is too much and since its supposed to be portable where is the portable this mod...

Well if you have extra time go for it, but I have a supercard CF but now is faulty because all I get is white screens when booted and slight touch of the cf card freezes it. Also, it only reads up to 2gigs not 4.
