Re: floppy drives

2018-11-13 by slickfix@...

All will depend on the type of floppy drive. Do you know if the floppy drive in the DKC100R has a same part number as the floppy drive in the DKC5R? If so it will probably work.

The Emulator will emulate a 720k or 1.44k drive with a shugart or ibm interface. It really depends on the disk
controller chip in the control box, and the functions of the floppy drive pinouts.

If you have a copy of the schematic of the DKC100R controller box, I could take a quick look for you. To see
if I think it could work.

The link to the makers of the emulator is:


Their customer support is very helpful. They may be able to help you also.

Drive costs about $110 USD.
