SCSI2SD, The SCSI Hard Drive Emulator for retro computing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Traditional hard drives last X years. Maybe, if you're luckly, you'll get X years of
|
|
service from a particular drive. The lubricants wear out, the spindles rust.
|
|
SCSI2SD is a modern replacement for failed drives. It allows the use ofvintage
|
|
computer hardware long after their mechanical drives fail. The use of SD memory cards
|
|
solves the problem of transferring data between the retro computer and a
|
|
modern PC (who still has access to a working floppy drive ?)
|
|
|
|
Features:
|
|
Terminator, termpwr, firmware upgradable (via the SD card)
|
|
Selectable SCSI ID (via jumpers)
|
|
Emulates a non-removable hard drive (does not present as a removable memory card reader) for maximum compatibility.
|
|
Unit attention configurability.
|
|
|
|
Technical Specifications:
|
|
SCSI Interface: SCSI-2 Narrow 8-bit 50-pin connector.
|
|
SD Card Support:
|
|
(state max size)
|
|

|
Performance:
|
|
Sequential read/write: 250kb/sec, 50kb/sec. Add some results of some SCSI hard drives
|
|
for comparison. 160Mb, 250Mb, 1Gb.
|
|
|
|
Compatibility:
|
|
Tested with Linux, Apple Macintosh System 7.5 on LC-II, LC-III, and LC-475 hardware.
|
|
Love to hear your success stories on other platforms.
