There were some talks a while ago about the new Rev. F of Lotharec's floppy emulator. Has anyone installed it in their E-II ? Any impressions ? http://www.lotharek.pl/product.php?pid=42

Yes, me :-) I have it and its fine. The only problem is the Screwholes will not fit perfekt to a 3,5 to 5,25 Adapter Frame. He says he will fix these in a view Weeks.

I have it installed in the top drive bay of an EII with a switch that allows me to select between the two drives. The HxC is simple, convenient, and powerful. And the software works pretty good too - a little buggy but it's getting some good updates. Same problem here with the screw holes not lining up. Also the housing of the HxC is not threaded - actually it's too thin to be threaded. So the only way I could secure it to the drive bay adapter was to use self threading screws or small screws with nuts. I ended up drilling new holes in the drive adapter to fit the hole alignment of the HxC and also I used over-sized screws that seem to hold it securely in place. My first test - I found some EII banks on line and used the HxC software to batch convert them to the HxC format with just a couple of clicks. Dropped those files onto and SD card and in 5 minutes I've got this little SD card that's loaded with some wonderful Universe of Sounds banks and loads - I should say unlimited - room to spare. And no legacy computer gear or software needed to get the sounds installed. Screw hole problem aside I'm very happy with it. > 3,5" to 5,25" Adapter > http://www.delock.com/produkte/F_367_Einbaurahmen_18136/merkmale.html > > > Am 27.10.2012 um 22:25 schrieb Gil: > >> What adapter did you use ? can you send a link ? ;) >> >> >> >> >> --- In emulatorII-list@yahoogroups.com, w.niessen@... wrote: >>> >>> Yes, me :-) >>> >>> I have it and its fine.

I like how tight and simple looking the drive adapter looks.
