I am probably ignorant but anyway why can't a floppy emulator be done in software? wouldn't that be an easier job?  :roll:


 There is a lot of floppy software-based emulators on Aminet. But not a single one have ability to use N-DOS disks or survive a reset (except RAD:). They are useless to emulate a real floppy drive.

 Remember one thing: this floppy emulator is a drop-in replacement to the real floppy drive, giving the Amiga the ability to use ADF files directly placed in a SD/MMC card. Much better than a real floppy drive (no bad blocks, small footprint, easy transfer from peecees, etc).
Goodbye people.

 @TNT23:

 Superb work 'till now.

 For the people willing to use it in big box Amigas, it's a simple matter of move the display and buttons to a front panel, maybe in a 5 1/4" fascia.

 I want the hardware as is it now!
