Hi everyone,
So, I've got a nice 5300cs that until fairly recently was running on a CF card in a PC card adapter. However, the friend who gave them to me found an urgent need for them back and I returned it after restoring the files on it. Point is, I'm now on the internal drive of my 5300 and it's slow. After some googling I found this and was wondering if there would be any issues using it as a hard drive.

My laptop already has an SD card slot and I have many SDs in various sizes so it looks like it'd be perfect, and cheap too. Question is, are there any potential compatibility issues more experienced Mac users could spot? I'm not super knowledgeable on this topic and wanted some external opinions before dropping money on this. Does it look ok to you guys?
