7/21 "Boot any OS on Earth from a CF card or Microdrive. The adapter's construction is good, the price is right, and the ability to turn it from a front side bay adapter to one hidden in the back via the included PCI bracket is a nice bonus."

Addonics IDE to CF Adapter receives a 4 1/2 out of 5 rating!
