    My CF card is a SanDisk Extreme III 4GB card and it is detected properly in the BIOS. This is the CF to IDE adapter I have http://www.casetronic.com/product_d.php?id=0000000044

    I'm very interested in SSD, but have no clue what company or where to buy them from. I only need 2GB, 4GB at max, and only stuff i've seen is like 32GB ones for a lot of money. Can you make some suggestions?

    NewEgg has a lot of SSDs. If you're just looking at read speeds and price, then the OCZ Vertex series are a good value: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227393 $149

    I have the 120GB version in my laptop, it works great and is very fast. OCZ has a new firmware update and a "TRIM" utility (shouldn't be needed for a carpc, but it helps keep the drive at top performance) for the Vertex series.

    I spent a lot of time years ago working with CF and other flash devices for carpcs, but honestly I don't see the need or advantage nowadays. SSDs provide better performance and usability and none of the compatibility headaches of CF, USB, or other flash devices.
