Title: Not directly Amiga related: Commodore 1571
Post by: jlariv8957 on March 14, 2025, 10:15:23 AM
Hi All,

I've recently bought a C128d with a dead 1571 drive, I heard that mitsumi drives were prone to fail but i couldn't imagine that it was so spread.

I'm looking for a replacement solution for the drive, I would prefer a physical 5.25 Drive but emulation could also be great

I just had an idea that I would like to share as I don't have the skills to do that myself.

Should it be difficult to build an interface that would emulate 1571 electronics but uses a standard 5.25 PC drive ?

I think many of C128 users would be intrested in.
