HxC Floppy Emulator USB - 3.5" Drive Replacement Vintage Computers, Samplers, PC

Description

DM Systems Floppy Emulator - Model FE-2000
The FE-2000 is a general purpose floppy drive emulator based on the fantastic HxC firmware developed by Jean-François DEL NERO. This floppy drive emulator can directly replace the aging original floppy drives in many computers, music instruments, and other equipment.
With features such as the full alphanumeric OLED display, integrated buzzer for drive noise emulation, navigation via a control knob, and threaded inserts for drive mounting screws, the FE-2000 is the highest value-per-dollar floppy emulator on the market!
Disks are stored individually on a removable and interchangeable USB drive. Disks can be selected and loaded using the built in display and button interface. This device supports both reading and writing to the USB drive. By storing and accessing your disks via a USB drive, you remove all risk associated with relying on outdated and slowly degrading media. Additionally, disk images may be managed on any modern computer in the same way you can manage any sort of file. You can back up and fit your entire floppy collection on a single USB thumb drive.
The FE-2000 is in a standard 3.5" drive form factor and can directly replace 3.5" floppy drives. The FE-2000 can also be used in place of 5.25" and even 8" floppy drives through the use of a bay adapter and IDC to card edge connector.
The drive you receive will be loaded with the latest HxC firmware. The firmware is still under development, and new capabilities are being added all the time. It is easy to update the firmware in the future. A white/beige version of this drive is offered in a separate auction. Upon purchase, I will provide documentation for general installation and configuration of the drive. Let me know if you have any questions, I'll be happy to help!
