Thanks for the tip/endorsement on uIEC/SD.It is always good to hear from someone who has used an item before buying one and finding out too late there was a problem.
$55 is pretty cheap for a modern storage device that will work with a C64.(I know there is the "use an old PC with adapter cable' but that is clunky and HUGE.)
Jim Brain is scheduled to attend the Cincinnati Commodore Computer Club Expo this Memorial Day weekend ,at the Drawbridge Inn just across the Ohio river from Cincinnati.
I have been planning to buy a 64NIC ,will have to ask Jim if 64NIC and uIEC/SD can coexist.
Someone at last year's Expo had a 1541 Ultimate and that was impressive ,especially compared to old C= 1541 "real" drive.
One ,if not the worst, fault of the C64 /128( and other home computers of that era) was slow drive access and limited storage.
