Should be this or next month. Beta tests for EII compatibility are still ongoing, but I assume these guys will succeed ! Then you'll have two options: - either you can buy this SD Card device for the EII - or you will probably be able to buy much easier a secondhand 5.25 drive from someone who replaced the 5.25 drive by the SD card device...

Do you REALLY think anyone would sell his EII disk drive, even if it's not that much in use any longer? (I'm not going to .. ) Title: Re: 5.25 floppy drive Post by: esynthesist on October 12, 2010, 03:49:47 PM Quote Do you REALLY think anyone would sell his EII disk drive, even if it's not that much in use any longer?
