I have an oldish IBM Thinkpad which still uses a 44 pin IDE interface for the hdd rather than the now traditional SATA (this same laptop also has a Pentium 3 which is more than happy running on what I want).

Was thinking of upgrading the hdd to solid state and have run into a few difficulties.

If I type 2.5" IDE SSD into Google, it will bring up things like a dual CF to 44 pin IDE adapter:

or a direct plugin flash drive (embedded disk card)

Now can anyone suggest a solution to this problem. I would love to go the CF route as that would give me two hdd possibilities, whereas I quite like the idea of the direct plugin flash drive?
