[QUOTE="Owlsroost, post: 424032, member: 83973"] The one you linked to is only single CF card - the dual card SATA version is here [url=http://www.addonics.com/products/flash_memory_reader/ad2sahdcf.asp]Dual CF - SATA HDD Adapter from Addonics[/url] One thing to be aware of for OS/timeshifting use - flash memory very, very slowly wears out when written. To extend the life of the memory cells, 'proper' SSD memory controllers employ 'wear-leveling' techniques to equalize the wear across all the cells in the chip(s). The controllers in SSD's track the usage and move data around to avoid excessive use of the same physical cells - this may not be the case with these adaptors (it isn't mentioned in the spec as far as I can see).
