I own a ATA-CF interface since Oss and still did not order some CF carts. I was thinking on buying 2 cards of 32MB. I can always connect my good old HD when I need more storage room

By the way, will such a device that wasn't designed for MSX, work on MSX machine ?

As it is IMHO not much more than a simple adapter it works for every IDE configuration. At least it works fine with the Amstrad CPC, but I couldn't test mine with the MSX, as my Sunrise IDE is a CF card edition.

It depends on the chipset of the padial mapper, i have also a padial mapper and it works.
But since padial has used several chipsets for his mapper , therefor the question

Does anyone know if this interface works on a plain msx1?
If yes, How much ram is needed?

Dear Sunrise, I sent money a while ago, from aoboroc *at* gmail *dot* com. Did you get it? Did you send me my CF adapter? I send you e-mails to your paypal e-mail, but don't get answers...
