[QUOTE="Neak Menter, post: 57622, member: 1900"] Re: SD to PCMCIA adapters that work on the PM5D I can confirm that an "EDUP MCR-5A" DOES work in the PM5D with an SDCard. I also know that you've got to format as microsoft "FAT16" (also known as just "FAT"). Things that I suspect, but don't know are - Use under 2GB (fat16 doesn't work above this anyway) SDCards. The EDUP MCR-5A does not work with "SDHC" cards (be careful because some manufacturers are now releasing small cards (<2GB) in the SDHC style). and, I think this adapter works because of the way it enumerates on the PCMCIA Bus - I think some of the cards appear as USB devices that then host the SDCard reader. This MCR-5A PROBABLY enumerates as a ATA device (like the old PCMCIA Flash memory and CF Card adapters do). Hope this helps - anyone who can confirm other cards that definitely work, please do - this thread is going to be more popular as time goes on and PM5Ds remain in use... [/QUOTE]
