@agowa338 @rasteri @ActionRetro Yeah, the #GOTEK #SFR1M44 is commonplace because of that problem.
- Like a lot of stitching and weaving machines that are 40-50+ years old rely on FDDs internally and replacing those with USB flashdrives is a no-brainer.
I mean, @TechTangents took a look at one of those #USB - #ISA Adapters which are only useful for storage really, as booting those is flaky at best...
@agowa338 @rasteri @ActionRetro @TechTangents As for #SATA drives on #IDE: I'd go with known working chips...
Like: #JM20330 & #JM20330 / #JM20330S
Which I intent to use for the #tiny486 as a means to just not having to use IDE drives...
