At this point, I'll give my standard disclaimer: DO NOT USE IBM MICRODRIVES IN A USB READER UNDER FreeBSD I've roached two 340MB microdrives by just inserting them. There has been discussion about this being a voltage issue (high startup draw). Standard CF cards work fine, but the IBM drives lose their magic smoke. The IBM drives work fine in a PCMCIA carrier.
