AAPRO XT-IDE
8 BIT ISA CARD
IDE / ATA CONTROLLER FOR VINTAGE PC COMPUTERS
WITH BOOT ROM

P/N: XT-IDE

THIS CARD WILL ALLOW YOU TO USE A MODERN HARD DRIVE WITH YOUR VINTAGE PC.
THIS CARD WILL WORK IN ANY COMPUTER EQUIPPED WITH AN ISA SLOT.

YOU CAN USE A REGULAR IDE HARD DRIVE, A CF CARD WITH AN ADAPTER OR EVEN A SATA DRIVE WITH A SUITABLE ADAPTER.

CARD COMPONENTS ARE TESTED BEFORE DISPATCH.

HIGH PROFILE, COMES WITH BRACKET.

PLEASE NOTE
" IT IS ALWAYS BEST TO CREATE THE INITIAL FILESYSTEM (FDISK, FDISK /MBR, FORMAT) ON THE TARGET MACHINE, OTHERWISE PROBLEMS WILL HAPPEN DUE TO DIFFERENCES IN DRIVE GEOMETRY TRANSLATION. NOT DOING THAT COULD LEAD TO PROBLEMS LATER ON, EVEN THOUGH IT MAY SEEM TO WORK AT FIRST. ONCE THIS IS DONE, IT'S SAFE TO MOVE THE DRIVE/CF MEDIA TO A MODERN MACHINE BECAUSE THE FILE SYSTEM DRIVERS IN A MODERN OS ARE SMART ENOUGH TO UNDERSTAND THE GEOMETRY AND MOUNT THE DRIVE SAFELY."
IF YOU IGNORE THAT ADVICE - WE CAN NOT HELP YOU.
