That's how I do it. C:\ small noisy drive for retro boot sound goodness.
D:\ CF card for games when I'm not actually interesting in hearing the drive
Is there one like that you can recommend that should work? I've read it's a bit of a gamble with IDE to CF cards, and then another gamble depending on which CF card you use. Hopefully I can buy a combo that works. This idea really stands out to me now that I've seen how tiny the case I'm using is, any space saving will be very nice.

Here's a quick look at my new case.. It didn't come cheap, but I think that dual bay PCMCIA drive may be worth a decent amount of money if I resell it. The SCSI bay up top doesn't have the caddy in it sadly.
I'm flat broke right now, so it's going to be a bit until I can get anything else (I still need a HDD controller, GPU, and mouse). I'm going to strip out whatever is in this case now and retrobrite it with some salon hair products in the mean time 😎 ...
Oh and any turbo wizards want to take a crack at this for me?? :

Looks like two columns of 11 jumpers, the left row is labeled D-N and the right is labeled 4-14. There are also two more sets of 3 jumpers down the bottom. I've never seen a setup like this before, I can't think of how it works off hand. So far all I know is that turbo off seems to be set to 08, not sure about on.
Sup. I like computers. Are you a computer?
