Just get one of these, and yes, it should work with
the MicroDrive controller, but I can't guarantee that
it will for sure. I remember trying it once, and that
it did work for me. This is a CF to IDE adapter. It
would be better to go straight from the CF to the IDE
than to have a PCMCIA adapter between them. This is
also the adapter that I will be supplying with CFFA2C
should it ever come to pass. We are working on it, so
people with IIc's, don't get rid of them. There is a
mass storage device in the works.

: Hmmm, I think I like where this is going.

There are so many options and if I was rich I would
have each and every one. I also have my eye on the
IDE to SCSI adapters, kind of expensive, but to be
able to use multiple IDE drives on a SCSI card?, WOW!
Can't be sure fo this either, but this might be the
solution to IDE CD drives on the Apple IIgs. Someone,
anyone, try this out, please.
