Re: [ts-7000] Microdrive / Type II CF?

["Don W. Carr" <>]

You might forget the microdrive and just buy a huge flash, for example 2 Gig.

So, if you write 50 bytes every second, it would take you about 1.25
years to fill the 2 gig flash. If the flash is good for 100,000 writes,
they you would be good for over 100,000 years. This of course assumes
you have a smart file flash file system that distributes the writes,
which the file system with TS-Linux should have.

Well, depends on your application and sample rate, etc.

Hello all,

I currently have a TS7200 and was wondering if anyone has used a
Microdrive or anything similar with it.  I know the Microdrives are
Type II CF, so will they fit? (I'm a newbie when it comes to that sort
of thing.)

Here is a link to a Hitachi Microdrive I am considering getting:

http://tinyurl.com/lt5s3 (tinyurl'd in case the original gets broken up)

The only reason I am considering getting a Microdrive is becuase I'm
going to be doing a lot of logging during development and I don't want
to burn out my CF disks very often.  I might just end up doing the
logging over NFS, but I would appreciate responses from people who
have used a small hard drive with this board.
