Some of you already know that we are working on an cased 3"1/2 version of the SD HxC Floppy Emulator since some months.
Here the first result :

This new board is based on the Rev C board.
For the moment all tests are ok.

Hopefully the case will be available in some days.


Stay tuned ! :D

Note : Preorder open on the Lotharek webstore ! : http://www.lotharek.pl/product.php?pid=42

Haha, No problem Lotharek! I totally understand. Here in Canada I have a full time job as a broadcast engineer and run a music label, I am a musician myself, I operate my own multimedia/support business, I am a husband and father, etc... There is never enough time! When they are ready, they'll be ready so, no pressure intended. I am just excited! I really like the HXC and being able to mount them into my samplers standard floppy bays will be amazing! Keep up the great work!
