Where to ask about MSD SD-2 disk drive?
« on: October 18, 2010, 07:13:23 PM »
Hey, where is a good place to ask about Commodore peripherals?  In particular, I have a couple of SD-2 drives and I purchased a dual-copy upgrade kit that I am finally getting around to installing.

The instructions say to install in U3, which is usually empty.  But the included schematics show that U3 is used for the SD-2, giving the drive (apparently) 6k.  So, my thought is that I will install it in U4 which shows unoccupied in the schematics, supposedly to give me 8k.  The question becomes, is this wasteful for the dual-copy option or anything else?  Or perhaps I will just save the extra 4016 for another project.

(And U3 is definitely occupied on the board.)

Freakin' awesome, thank you.  There is actually a thread from 2006 on Lemon64 asking the exact question.  Looks like a good forum to join.
