The Acard SCSI->IDE adapter is meant to mount on the back of a 3.5" IDE hard drive. The SCSI ribbon plugs into the Acard. I guess I can just engineer the Acard to sit horizontally. I was going to mount the CF drive in the floppy bay so I could remove it, but the Q605 case is so easy to open it wouldn't make much sense. I already searched eBay and googled for an adapter with a 40 pin male connector to CF connector and couldn't find any that allowed the Acard to sit vertically and the CF card to sit horizontally. They make 44 Pin adapters but then I'd have to find a 40 pin to 44 pin IDE adapter. Anyway, I'll figure something out.
