Hi

I have a old arcade mobo which had a 40 go ide hdd .

I want to clone this to a 64gb IDE SSD ,( for faster loading time reasons ) but I don't know if the mobo will take a SSD ???????

Can anyone advise if this will work [img][img]https://s17.postimg.org/oinu4wskr/image.jpg[/img]

What's the model no. ?

You would be much better with a IDE -> Compact flash adapter. This will eliminate any compatibility problems that a SSD might give you.

Where do I get the model number ?

AISI, an IDE SSD should ideally have no compatibility problems.

OTOH, most CF cards will identify themselves as removable rather than fixed devices, in which case Windows will only see the first partition.
