• BurgerDisk: a daisy-chainable Smartport hard disk drive

    Hi,

    FYI, I've been busy the last two months developing an SD-based hard
    drive for my Apple //c, kind of like the SPIISD but adapted to my
    needs: it is daisy-chainable, which means you can still use your
    external floppy disk drive(s) when it's plugged.

    I have published it as open hardware, free software. See https://www.colino.net/wordpress/burgerdisk-an-apple-ii-smartport-hard-drive/ for more information.

    As there has been interest for pre-built units in the community, I've
    launched a small Kickstarter so I can plan better on how many parts I
    need to get in order to make people happy: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/colinleroymira/burgerdisk/

    Hope you'll like it!
