Hello

I looked at my ide-fix today and saw some text about clockport extender.
Do that mean that it's a clockport there on the express board?
Have anybody tried it? where do I get the cable or  how do I make it myself?

I have a HxC Floppy Drive USB. Is there a howto make a cabel to connect to external floppy port?
Somthing like thise. http://youtu.be/osMQzL1jVME

Hey thats my Video :)

I'm not sure how you would do this with USB version though as I just used the internals from an External DD Floppy Drive and some sheet perspex for the enclosure.

Thanks for the video:)
Well I thogth i would do it like you did, just not use a sd-card to load from, but rahter a usb connected to my pc.
It would be somthing like:

 Amiga ekstern floppy connection -> cabel -> into case that holds the HXC floppy emulator -> floppyconnector on HXC card -> usb out on HXC -> PC

Somebody have to ask individual Computers.
But it's only 10 pin outs...?
