Re: What tool to make sandisk-CFs fixed disks?


SanDisk only provided a command line tool. They were the only CF
manufacturer to provide such a tool to change removable ID to Fix ID. There
has been a rumor that SanDisk doesn't offer the utility any more. You have
to purchase CF cards that are already ID'd as removable.

Hi!

What tools are you using to make the sandisk compact flash cards fixed
disks? I am using some DOS command line tool, but it would be useful
to have something allowing this procedure in an USB card reader with
Windows XP...

Any hint is welcome!

Thank you very much in advance

Ralph.
