You can get CF-to-SATA adapters.  We've used CF-to-IDE quite
successfully in a pair of storage server.  We have a couple of the
SATA adapters on order to test with as our new motherboards only have
1 IDE controller, and doing mirroring across master/slave of the same
channel sucks.

That's what we do as well, but with /usr/local on ZFS, leaving just /
and /usr on UFS.
