ok i cannot make the computer to detect the transcend....this is a waste of money .... i bought 2 adapters and 16gb 300x transcend and it doesnt detect....the problem is not with the motherboard or the connector cause ive tried to change it to the default SSD and it works

i thought id give it another try .... so i bought another transcend 8gb 300x ( EXACTLY the same as andy's ) and the adapter also EXACTLY the same (sintech).... but why the hell is doesnt detect it??? ive wasted 600 SGD for this CFs and adapters.... i have 2 adapters so i dont think the adapters are broken...

a forum user even came to my house and helped me and it still doesnt detect the CF??? am i missing something here? plz help cause ive wasted lots of money for this CF...

and fyi the adapter is still intact meaning i havent cut it yet
 
Perhaps mistaken on flexible?
Btw,do u buy the adapter at singapore?
How much and where do u buy it?
I really can't bear with original ssd...
thx
 
confirmed its the zif connector. the reverse type should be used on the adapter, while the straight ones are for zif hdd. learned it the hardway
 
grabejud : the kind of zif flex cable straight one not for zif hdd,i use reverse cable on 1.8 zif hitachi hdd.also it used on 1.8 zif to CF adapter
straight used on original ssd,CMIIW
 
I also got the same problem with SanDisk Extreme 3 16G, for Transend 300x 8G, I got disk error
But people in the forum tell me to use the small black filter from the original SSD , everything on Transend 8G,
everything Ok, while Sandisk extreme 3 still not detect
hope this can help!!
