    CF to Toshiba 1.8-inch IDE Hard Drive Converter

    posted by sohman on 11/30/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Reasonable price, physical size small enough to fit into the space previously occupied by a 1.8 inch HDD
    Cons:
    I ordered 3, one of them had a bent pin, should still work after straightening it out though.

    Does what is has to do

    posted by KarlV on 06/29/2011 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Does what it has to do. It worked like a charm. It is easy & practical to replace a hard disk (in combination with compact flash cards, also available on this site).
    Cons:
    Only minor con is that you have to pay attention that the pins of the connector properly match with your compact flash. There i...

    Definitely worth the price

    posted by lordakula on 10/02/2010 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Very good item, works perfectly. I have this installed in an ipod with a 32gb flash card. Also would be good for other applications, I imagine
    Cons:
    The jumper on the board is the tallest part of the board. The jumper makes the board too tall, it would be better to remove it ...

    Better than sku.18463!

    posted by queryno4 on 05/26/2010 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Works, seems far more durable than it looks. Being used with a 133x 32GB Kingston CompactFlash card in a Toshiba Gigabeat F40. Speeds are comparable to use outside of the adapter (fast), so no complaints or issues there.
    Cons:
    It's not as cheap as the old one? I'd still pay double or triple what I did if I had to though.

    Cheap and good

    posted by kgleow on 04/22/2010 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    I replace it with Toshiba 1.8" HDD on my Toshiba Portege R200. It works well with 8GB Kingston CF card with x133 speed. Read/write speed is slower then HDD but the price is a lot more cheaper! (USD300 for a HDD VS
    Cons:
    Read/write speed is slow, not sure how is it with a higher speed CF card.

    Works great in 4th gen iPods

    posted by icemansquared on 02/03/2010 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:less than 1 day

    Pros:
    Easy to install- just plug it in and restore through iTunes. Very cheap and made my iPod work again after a few years of sitting around collecting dust.
    Cons:
    As previous reviews have stated, there is a jumper pin that needs to be bent back with pliers so the screen displays normally. ...

    It works, here's how to plug it in

    posted by dfreccia on 11/21/2009 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    This product works as advertised to replace a 1.8" Toshiba drive with a compact flash card. Ive got it in a resurrected 4th generation iPod. The compactflash is more durable than a spinning hard drive, and this combination is much less expensive than t...
    Cons:
    One hiccup during installation: this drive converter had more holes in it that the pins coming out of the ipod. It took me a fe...

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:more than 1 month

    Pros:
    Does exactly what its supposed to do
    Cons:
    If you're using this to fix an iPod the jumper is too high to fit. I had to bend the pins together and solder them, no big deal...

    iPod 4G conversion

    posted by daeman on 03/21/2009 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    I installed this adapter together with a Kingmax 4GB CompactFlash card inside my old iPod (4th Gen). The iPod was recognized without any problem and was successfuly restored using iTunes.
    Cons:
    Master/Slave jumper may be too high for slim iPods (with original hard drive of 30GB or less). It fits all right within my 40GB...

    Easy to use CF/1.8" adaptor

    posted by tekster on 01/14/2009 Certified Owner

    Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Harddisk died on me for my Ipod 4G. Had to find a solution and I came across this in DealeXtreme and thought it'd be useful. Ordered one to try and it resurrected my Ipod 4G! It's so good and easy to use that I ordered another one for standby. Fits perfectl...
    Cons:
    The jumper for this card has to be tweaked a little for it to fit perfectly in the Ipod 4G. It's a little too long and needed t...
