Niiiiiccceeee on the SD adapter. I have had bad luck with CF pins bending in the past. If you use a 64GB card what is the available memory to the PC? Can you split up into several drives?

Fantastic thanks guys. This is an incredible alternative! Would this item fit the requirements https://www.ebay.com/itm/334397537187 or this https://monotech.fwscart.com/XTIDE_Deluxe_Bootable_ISA_CFIDE_Interface_Card/p6083514_19478732.aspx Is there a max capacity to consider? I hope to...

I have an old 286 era IBM which I would like to image the HDD for backup. Got me thinking once the spinner goes bad what is the modern alternative? I have seen IDE to CF adapters on the web. Can one of these be used, along with some emulation software, as an alternative HDD to the spinners?

I did notice some warbles on playback. I am going to try one of those cassette adapters to load a game using a laptop to confirm if this is an issue or not.

Did you ever make any progress on this? My 410 will not load any games giving error 143 most the time, even on games recorded on to new tape. It has no problem saving and loading BASIC programs to/from tape.
