Internal CArd readers that work with IDE cables

[Xycron]

Are there any internal card readers that work with IDE cables? It's a pain in the ass to connect up a internal one with the pins for usb to your motherboard, but If i have to I will just get one of those(there's a 42 in 1 thats blackk that i have ben looking at )

Also are there any Bay adapters for 3¼ inch bay(i think its 3¼) to a 5 1/2 inch?

Like something that will go into a 5 and a half but have a 3 and a ¼ opening to put something that would fit in only a 3 and ¼ slot? I have 4 of the 5's and 1 of the 3's and i want a floppy and a card reader, and the few card reader's in looking at are the 3's, except for 1 five except I dont like that one to much because I would like some more front USB slots if possible too.

you can get a floppy/card reader, but the card reader may still work off a usb interface. Plugging it in really isn't all that bad, it's just like 4 wires, check your mobo manual to see where they are. And one bay adaptor I found off google is http://www.maplin.co.uk/Free_UK_Delivery/5_25_inch_to_3_5_inch_Bay_Adaptor_36414/5_25_inch_to_3_5_inch_Bay_Adaptor_36414.htm. As a technicality, I think bay sizes are 3.5 and 5.25, but no biggie.

There are some compact flash readers that'll use IDE. However, with how IDE works, I bet it wouldn't be hot swapable unless you have identical cards...

Floppy/Card readers do use both the floppy and USB connection. Well, most of them...

not with my mobo, there are 2 spots for usb, and both spots you can have to, i used up both on one spot, and the other spot is pretty much touching the apg slot right next to the pci slot. it was built without slot for usb obvoisly.

Thanks for the link, but do you know of any in black? or maybe i'll just paint it...
