Does anyone have a software to convert a tradition compact flash card from removable media to a fixed disk? The IDE adapter works, but the flash card is still read as removable media. They used to have an open software that was free back then, but it seems to be off market now. Any help is appreciated.
Sandisk says this can be done, but it does not support it:
"CompactFlash cards can be configured to use Fixed Disk mode, as this is defined by the CompactFlash specification. However, SanDisk does not support its implementation with our consumer or professional-level cards, as it is outside of the scope of their intended use. Thus, all of our consumer and professional cards are shipped, by default, in Removable mode."
