Thanks, I think finding a Kittyhawk may be a little difficult but I'll keep an eye out now that I know what to look forLooks like a HP KittyHawk. A 1.3in form factor that didn't catch on.

Gender changers are readily available, but they're not straight through, you need to cross the traces over.Given the timeframe of the Focus card's release, Alltech likely got a whole bunch of those drives surplus for cheap. The header looks like it was modified or replaced. A pin header/gender changer for the DOMs is doable, just cut some of these down to size: https://www.ebay.com/itm/141182458139
If you buy one from abroad, is it a Non-dom DOM?Until a few hours ago I'd never heard of a DOM and now they're all the rage!
Brilliant! I was trying to think of a good DOM joke, but this one is inDOMitable ;-) !If you buy one from abroad, is it a Non-dom DOM?
I think you're misjudging the size of a DOM - they are about 25mm long. Combined with an adapter, about 40mm long total.The IDE DOM with the gender changer adapter is likely going to be as long or longer than a 2.5” SSD and I have those on hand
Good point. You'd need an adapter, I can see they can cost as little as £4 on eBay (+P&P); and small CF cards can be bought for about £5-£6; whereas a 512MB DOM from eBay would be about the same (£10 inc P&P).Why should you use a DOM module when a CF card also works?
On a motherboard, they plug straight into the IDE connector. No cable, no adapter board.Why should you use a DOM module when a CF card also works?
Dom's are very interesting. I've never heard of it before.
