maybe its better to just get kingspec dom?
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kingspec-32-GB-DOM-Disk-On-Module-4CH-44-Pin-IDE-Female-SSD-Card-HD-MLC-Flash-/280867529660
Sustained Read 78MB/S | Sustained Write 60MB/S

the msata has the potential to be 500mb/s read/write
depending on which msata u buy
if u get a sataIII spec msata
such as this adata
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/ADATA-XPG-SX300-64GB-SSD-SATA-III-6-Gb-s-mSATA-Up-To-550-MB-s-Read-Speed-Up-/321470693561?pt=US_Solid_State_Drives&hash=item4ad92580b9
that is 10 x as fast as the kingspec !!!

arjen.. this is what i was talking about.. just to bump the thread:D

once u have this adapter..
u can easily have a number of different msata chips to change your hard drive + experiment or have a backup of your drive

click to see msata for cheap on ebay

at the time of posting this post, 16gb msata for 12.99$ on ebay..
also a 3gb sandsik for 18.99$ ... very cheap

so cost would be adapter cost + 12.99 for 16gb FAST ssd ..
how can u beat that? and u can pick + choose a premium brand or a cheap brand.. or both;)

the one thing to make sure before buying an adapter is if it has master/slave settings control

its the cheapest.
cheaper then compact flash
cheaper then Sata SSD
cheaper then flash IDE DOM?

here u can see 64gb msata for just 30-35$
