On the floppy-emu the jumpers “MO” and “S0″ need to be set (see picture).

Mixed operation with an additional, external drive may be possible, but hasn’t been tested so far.

So this means either the Ajax-FDC or a WD1772- 02– 02. That mean, it should run at 16MHz und should be able to stand this clockspeed permanently.

The floppy-controller already needs to be fitted for HD-operation.

The following criteria have to be met if one want’s to use the 1.44MB-model of the floppy-emu with an Atari:

Regarding this I found a PDF document on the CD of my version with the name “REPAIR SOLUTION – VB516.pdf”. If one has the old version, it is recommended to replace the resistors by 1 kOhm-resistors.

If the value is 102 (= 1 kOhms), it’s already the updated version. One can distinguish the updated version by the values of “RN4″ to “RN6″ (red square in the picture).

For the updated version certain chip-resistors have been reduced in their values, so that the detection runs reliable. “updated version” refers to a schematic error, that could have lead to the computer failing to detect that the drive is ready (please insert a disk…). On Amazon or ebay there are always a lot offers for about 20€ for the Gotek devices. Also, I feel the price of the HxC-emus a bit overdrawn. I decided for this paticular drive, because it (theoretically) can deal with 1000 disks and supports HD. This article should prove the opposite, since I successfully exchanged my internal HD-drive for the floppy-emu “SFR1M44-U100 updated version” from “Gotek”. One can find a lot of stuff and rumors about the “HxC floppy emulators” in relevant forums and also, that “cheap” alternatives won’t work with computers like Amiga or Atari.
