Arduino Powered Floppy Reader now also Writes Disks too!
« on: September 17, 2017, 09:35:14 PM »
Hi Everyone

This is a a followup to previous thread but seperate thread so not to confuse responses.

New version (full source code included) is now available.  Not only does this noe read disks better, it can now also write them too!

For those that didn't see this before, this is an Arduino powered solution that can create ADF disks images from real floppy disks, and also now write them back to floppy disks.

All information, circuit diagrams, source code etc can be found at http://amiga.robsmithdev.co.uk

Its all open source (GPL licence) - enjoy

Hi, if you source 'compatiable' arduino parts from eBay and have an old PC floppy drive and cable around then you can build the whole thing for about 10-15$ (£10 gbp) approx

Hi, I’m not, just don’t have the equipment, but am in touch with a group of people who are planning to be selling them in eBay in the new year
