#Adaptec slimscsi 1460a xp drivers#
2.0 software along with the camera drivers previously installed on the computer (that was somewhat of an ordeal in itself).Īssuming you have these things, you can follow the exact sequence listed here on a XP laptop PC. PCMCIA CF adapter was plugged into the camera along with a 256MB or smaller CF card.ĥ. 50 pin centronics female to 50 pin centronics half pitch male adapter ($8 USD on Ebay)Ĥ. No drivers are necessary for this card with windows XP.ģ. Adaptec 1460D SlimSCSI PCMCIA card with 50 pin centronics cable supplied with the card ($11 USD including shipping on Ebay). After a couple weeks of playing around, I have created a workflow to repeatedly to format a number of Compactflash (CF) cards in my RD-175's using windows XP laptop. Today I am happy to report that I have future proofed (or at least greatly extended) the life of my RD-175. At least I can now retire my windows 98 laptop, which I had maintained exclusively for the RD175. The newer computers have a smaller form factor for expansion cards than the previous generation of PCMCIA cards, so I will have to purchase another component to test this. The RD-175 software works, so it is just a matter of loading drivers and finding a compatible SCSI adapter for the computer.

My next goal is to see if I can get this to work on my Windows 10 PC. Most of the SCSI PCMCIA cards are made for windows 98 an earlier computers and may have XP compatibility issues. I would just urge anyone to search google for compatibility information on whatever card that they are considering to verify XP compatibility. All that being said, I strongly suspect any PCMCIA to SCSI or USB to SCSI cable will work as long as they are XP compatible. Perhaps it was luck, but I happened to purchase two D versions for that price in separate auctions. I see that the earlier versions are pretty cheap, but may not be fully XP compatible. Adaptec made 1460A-D versions as well as a 1480 UltraSCSI version (more expensive). In my searching this was by far the least expensive SCSI adapter route at the time of this post.
