So far it looks like this:

‎B083LXPF91​	N-1801​	IDE / mSATA Adapter​	Jmicron​	JM20330​	NO​	chine, welcome, system error 3. Without system extension: startup, everthing okay. But not stable sometimes starts up with errors 1, 10 and 11​

So, now I will test the N-1801 with 7.6 and 8.6.

The funny thing: although the JM20330 is used by multiple manufacturers and they only seem to adopt the application note schematic, it has different outcomes.....

I wonder if the issues you've been having with adapting JM20330 mSATA - IDE is related to the issues I had, as discussed here:

Mac Mini G4, mSATA-to-IDE adapters and Master/Slave

When putting a mSATA in a 44-pin IDE adapter into a Mac Mini G4, is it possible to set whether it is a master or slave on these adapters. My CF-IDE adapters have a jumper for master. According to Wikipedia, the 4 extra pins are for power. IDE uses 40-pins (including one mechanical one). When I...

I’ve watched a few of Sean Malseed’s video’s (Action Retro on YouTube) and he’s has a pile of IDE to SSD and IDE to CF adapters he tests - some work better than others. He usually has very good results with Dosdude1’s hand assembled IDE to SSD drives, which can be purchased at https://doslabelectronics.com/shop
