Yes this can be done.
I do not know if all brands of adapters work.
this one does for sure:

In light of my recent hard drive troubles, someone has brought about
a thought: CompactFlash to 44-pin IDE adapters are commonplace now,
and I have a plethora of 1-4GB CF cards that aren't doing anything.
Has anyone tried this in a 2300c? The benefits would be numerous. It
would reduce weight, make the Duo almost silent, probably reduce
power consumption, and make the system more resilient to shock,
since flash is solid-state.
My only concern, of course, is that the drive controller might not
be okay with the adapter. Has anyone tried this? Any insight? I
mean, these adapters are $1 with free shipping on fleaBay, so I'm
probably going to give it a shot anyways, but if someone knows a
particular brand or model that work, it would be good to have it
documented somewhere.
