I really like this idea for my aging Macs - a solid-state solution.
No more stiction! Not as cool as a CFFA, of course, but it'll do.

Yep, and you can still have a CD drive attached without more than one card installed. Unless you have a CFFA 2.0 which may be able to have a CD drive attached with a CF. I haven't experimented with the Master/Slave function as yet, but it's in my future. < Note: you need to flash the EEPROM with v.2.0 firmware >
