My current vendor Transcend is messing up my CF orders and I'm looking to
switch.
Any anyone using the RAM EWF that requires a CF card to be set as
non-removable please list the CF card manufacturer you are using?

We recently qualified SimpleTech and Silicon Systems CF cards for our use.
They can be ordered as non-removable. The electronic distributers Bell and
Arrow carry them. Lead times are now very long.

SimpleTech 256 MB Industrial Temp, marked as "fixed" is SLCF256JI-F from
Arrow.
Non-industrial temp range is SLCF256J-F.
'F' = "Fixed"
We pay around $45 for small (5-10) quantities.


The Silicon Systems we buy from Bell. P/N I have here is SSD-C25M-3012 but
I don't recall which character marks it as "fixed". These are a bit more
expensive.

Both are industrial grade and have 2,000,000 write cycles.

Transcend fixed my problem.
The new 80X 512MB cards worked fine.
BTW, I have seen a dramatic drop in prices in CF cards recently.
Also, the Transcend 80X 512 boots about twice as fast as the Sandisk Ultra
II

I suggest you forget about trying to order "fixed" CF cards. Just use the
information in the posting under the subject: "Does XPfildrvr1224.zip can be
used to mask USB as fixed?". This is a publicly available driver made by
Hitachi. It consists of a cfadisk.sys file and a cfadisk.inf file. Edit the
cfadisk.inf to reflect the model of your CF card (you find this by looking in
the registry). Import the .inf file using the component designer, set the
repository location, and save the results to a .sld file. Fire up component
database manager and import the .sld file. Copy the cfadisk.sys and
cfadisk.inf files to the selected repository. When you fire up target
designer, you will see the "CompactFlash Disk" component under "Hardware:Disk
Drives". Include this item. Now your CF in EXP will appear as a fixed drive,
not a removable drive regardless of the vendor of CF.
