Hi,

if you could please help me to clarify this for my simple mind, regarding the SD card HcX emulator and the Amiga...


So in simple terms does not being able to write mean not being able, for example, to save games?

Could the hardware or software be modified so as to make it writeable for the amiga? How difficult would it be to make this modification?


Are there any plans for a future version, which will include write support for the amiga?


Or would uit be possible to have the original floppy drive plus the SDcard emulator both connected, and so write to a floppy disc instead?


Thanks for the help, just want to understand what it is exacly I might be buying!
