If there was a simple, low-cost 50-pin SCSI SSD or CF card solution out there, no doubt we'd all being linking to the product here on 68kMLA. For who among us doesn't want such a low-heat, 100% silent, low-power solution for their vintage Mac? But there is no one solution that fills the bill. I still don't like multiple adapters. However, it is interesting to read about the 1 million write cycle CF cards. I did not know that.

For myself, I just want something along the lines of 4.5GB to 8GB in size, with 50-pin SCSI that will work internally in my SE30. If I can get everything I need (CF card, cables, adapters -- everything) for under $200, assured to work perfectly as any normal spinning platter hard disk would, then I am ready to buy. But I would want it to read and write AT LEAST as fast as the 7200rpm SCSI drive I am currently using.
