Thank you Steve Chamberlin for creating this cool little gadget. It arrived promptly via USPS Priority Mail in a small flat rate box. I just tested it out and got it to load 140K and 800K floppy images on my //c+ after playing around with several configurations. I had 2 5.25 floppy drives already attached, so it wouldn’t work on the end of that daisy chain. When I removed one of the drives it was seen as S5,D2 when configured as an 800K drive and as S6,D2 when configured as a 140K drive. I’m thinking of putting it on the internal connector to replace the 3.5 drive that burned out. I wonder what the //c+ will think when it finds a 5.25 floppy as its internal drive – it will say “WTF! I’m not a //c – give me my 3.5 floppy back!”
I tried it on my Apple //e daisy chained to my 5.25 Transdrive with the EMU configured as an Apple 800K drive. It couldn’t find the drive under Prodos 8 v1.9 – I’m going to need to do more testing to see how it should be connected and whether Prodos and PC Transporter can use it.
So now that I’m confident that the board works I can assemble the case.
