@rasteri @TechTangents speaking of #storage: A main annoyance I found is that whilst there are #IDE -> #SATA adaptors that can just be plonk'd directly onto the mainboard, they are always either single-port or these weird "bidirectional" ones which means instead of a jumper/switch to say what side is the drive have two SATA ports and can only use one at the time.

  • There seems to be no IDE -> 2x SATA ports with like "master"/"slave" ports for SATA devices.

I know why these adaptors exist, so that there needs to be no manual printed (silkscreen explains everything) and only 1 part be made regardless if IDE-> SATA or SATA->IDE.

Still doesn't make it less annoying.

  • Maybe someone wants to take a look at the "stupider" IDE->SATA Adaptors and consider designing an IDE -> Dual-SATA adaptor?

I guess @rasteri and other #PC104 users can now get the beloved #ISA-#USB #Flashdrive card with native PC104 pinout to stack on boards.

  • Not that this is much of an engineering feat, as PC/104 is just a different form factor of ISA, but still nifty for #legacy / #industrial setups that may want to have more flexibility re: data storage.

I wounder if anyone got those ISA-USB controllers to work on #Linux distros tho.

  • Obviously they're slow (according to @TechTangents in the realm of a 1x CD-ROM drive) and not bootable, but still useful for systems without native USB ports.

I sadly don't have any system with ISA or PC/104 at hand (gotta build one i.e. #tiny486) so I can't test it anyway, but maybe a future revision of the #WeeCee may benefit from such an option (which I think also has the potential to be a good "bridge machine" for people dealing with legacy / industrial systems...
