Re: [emax] Chinese floppy emulator

2014-08-13 by Ted Summers

My understanding is that these don't support other than DOS images.
To clarify- the manufacturer GOTEK supports FAT12, FAT16, FAT32
Image size 1.44 MB.

Emax doesn't use those MS_DOS based formats.
Emax doesn't use 1.44MB, only 720K disk (DSDD)

In addition, there is no information on jumpers to select DS0.

Someone got it to work in Amiga by re-engineering the firmware to use the AMIGA format.

So it is not a plug and play solution from my research.
If it was, believe me for the price everyone would be buying them as they can be had for as low as $12.
