Hey mate, long time no chit chat. I hope you and yours are safe there down under with all the flooding.


Okay, you're not going to like the answer, but I will explain.

I am not going to tell...


I spent a crap load of my own time and money buying and then testing various SATA adapters and mods needed etc. As I have said before, the mass majority will not work. I only found one out a ton of them that would do the job.

I was not looking to get rich or really even make any money on them, but I did expect to recover my costs.

What happened? Well, as you are aware, lack of interest, lack of inputs, lack of pretty much anything made me just drop it for development outside my own uses. That and the spew coming from a select few, like Bitor. You know, the ones who want everything handed to them on a silver platter for nothing and use the backs of others to try to further themselves.

Thus, I come to this forum on very very rare occasions, give very little input (until those people are gone), and decided a long time ago that I was not going to share knowledge on what I developed.

Call me petty or whatever, but you asked, and there is my feelings on it. I hope you understand.
