HxC Rev F Floppy Emulator

HxC Rev F Floppy Emulator

2014-01-27 by niklas.ehrlin@...

As I'm starting to daydream of my future with my Emax 1 Rack, I would like to see if anyone have any experience regarding the HxC Floppy emulator.

My machine is an Emax 1 HD rack (not SE yet) with a faulty and disconnected internal HDD. The floppydrive I have at the moment seems to be faulty as well, so the plan should be to remove that and install the HxC.
Some questions:
Regarding the installation of the floppy emulator - is it as easy as I think t is, just unplugg and remove the floppydrive and replace it with the emulator? No need to fix anything regarding jumpers or SCSI-id?
After the switch from floppydrive to - is it possible to upgrade to SE using the diskimage in files-section?
Any other tips or comments are much appreciated!
