Description: This is not quite Amiga disk format, but it's the only sharp photo in a set I have managed to take. TR-DOS is a disk OS for ZX Spectrum floppy interface called Beta128. It has been - and still is - the only available and thus popular in Russia.

| March 08, 2009, 03:21:02 PM Dear tnt23, great work, your floppy emulation project is most promising and - as my Amiga floppy drives are dying one by one - I desperately need this one. Are you shipping them officially by now? If so, what's the price tag? Thank you! Regards, Joe |
| tnt23 Posts:195 | January 29, 2009, 07:02:04 AM A few words on Beta disk interface from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_Disk_Interface You'd better check http://zx.pk.ru, the ultimate Russian resource on ZX Spectrum and related topics (in Russian). |
| KatManDEW Posts:346 | January 28, 2009, 06:42:34 PM Do you have any more info on the Beta128 for the ZX Spektrum? Do you know where I can get one? |

| tnt23 Posts:195 | February 02, 2008, 12:14:59 PM IDE/CompactFlash connector is for using another ADF storage along with SD/MMC card. The whole thing then looks like this: http://www.amiga.org/gallery/index.php?n=1921=5 When both are attached, you have a choice of two flash drives, 0 and 1, in emulator's File Browser menu. As the IDE/CompactFlash bus is driven in software, it is quite possible to attach other equipment to this connector. The oddest idea so far is to control a real external FDD through it, to create real floppies out of ADFs. |

| February 02, 2008, 11:47:08 AM Looking great - may I ask what is the IDE/Compact Flash connector for? Could this be used instead of a HDD - or is it the other way round i.e. for connecting a HDD in place of a SD card? |
