I'm looking for a compatible IDE/SATA adapter to put a hard drive or SSD in a Power Mac Quick Silver.
I've tried two, but I can't install the system.
If anyone knows of a working adapter, please include the make and model. Any eBay links where I can buy one?
Or if anyone has one for sale?
I live in Italy.

The ultra cheap one I bough ages ago just worked.

But....

I would advice getting a SiL3112 SATA card (10€ or so) and
... either flash it with a PPC/Apple BIOS
... or leave it as is and boot from a CF card hooked up to IDE

I did the 2nd option as it allows you to have the SATA SSD with an RDB and that setup even worked for Linux.

You could even keep a spinning HDD on the IDE as all you need there is a place to put the boot.img.
