Finding Proper USB-TTL Device for Flashing Gotek

Post by midiquestions »

Hi, I have a very basic question.

I bought a Gotek SFR1M44-u100k USB floppy replacement. I know I need to flash it with the HxC firmware, but where do I obtain the device which can do this? I have seen some videos of people using some sort of a USB-serial programmer, but I don't know where to buy one or how to tell if I am getting the right one. I've never done anything like this before.

Does this look like the right item?
