Iriver IHP120 -> 50pin to CF to SD

Hey everybody

I want to revive my old iriver running on rockbox with a dead harddrive and saw alot of CF mods... Now i'm wondering, is it possible to use a 50pin -> CF converter as shown in the mods..and also use a CF -> SD or Microsd card converter...? Can't really find anything about it on google (Sd card usage in these players)

Any idea's on this one?

Thanks!

Great! Thumbs crossed see if it works??  ;D

Today I get this item.Over two months... airmail, sure :\.
 Well:) works perfect !
 Speed - Toshiba 16G class 4 -write 4,4MB/s, Read 8,1MB/s, ordinary cheapest Kingston 8G 2,8/7,9
The same cards on Cowon D2 - 4,9/4,4. Heh.
So enough :)
But mechanically - it's too long. Longer ab.10mm than HDD (with SD card) - but I cut a  board and solder flex tape (HDD flex) into. Its perfect. Near "phones" and "line in" socket I put SD port :). Sadly change an SD card need reset (power off) but works :D
Adapter is thick less than 4mm so I put double batterry in my H3xx+
Sorry, my basic english don't allow to write more about this SD mod... but if You intrested in -ask me, I'll try:)

Regards

Any modifications needed in software? And do you notice that is it slower with a SD on the iriver??

:O Too bad it is a little to big (the adapter).. so it won't fit in it?
Is there anyway to shorten the adapter instead of the iriver case??

Any photo's.. especially with the solder flex tape into the adapter..? I don't really understand that part :P


Where did you buy it  ;D man i'm getting excited  ;D ;D ;D ;D
