Compact Flash to IDE converter
Compact Flash to IDE converter
(OP)
I've seen adapters that convert an IDE socket to a CompactFlash socket so that you can do a solid state boot on a PC, but does something exist that will convert it the other way? I'm looking to attach a laptop drive to a CompactFlash device in order to up the storage capability. For example, I want to attach a hard drive to a CF-based mp3 player or camera. So far, my searches have turned up nothing but the solid state bootable adapters.
On a side note, is it theoretically possible to build an adapter myself? What would be the biggest hurdles?
Thanks,

For your purposes, why not just purchase a HDD-based MP3 player? It wouldn't cost any more than making it yourself from bits.
