Creating new hacked DMS with solid state drive
« on: March 02, 2009, 08:06:51 am »
Hi,

 I have been trying to create a new hacked DMS with a compact flash card in a CF to 44pin IDE adapter. I have successfully created DMS in PhatHack Tools, but when I put it in c710 Music Keg HU will say loading and scrolls through track numbers for about 30 seconds then HU says eject.. I tried partitioning in windows drive manager and using fix DMS with the same results.. If I do the same procedure on a actual laptop IDE drive it works fine just like the genuine DMS does.
 I would like to get my keg to work when its cold out, the keg wont function when its close to or below freezing, can't always bring DMS inside with me. So thus SSD or equivalent, I thought may fix the cold problem. Any help would be great!  ???

This isn't going to be very helpful, but some other posts here suggest that while a few have tried, no one seems to have successfully gotten a CF or other SSD to work as a DMS -- or at least no one has reported any success.

I have one that was sent to me for testing, and I haven't gotten it working.  I spent enough time on it to determine that it is not a trivial effort, and have not managed to get a new bootcode written that will make the IDE controller happy with it.  It seems to not respond to some ATA commands, which really doesn't make much sense... but that's what I saw.
