So far, I could have used just one SD card interface, keeping one microdrive. Abandoning the microdrives completely is an option I could think about. But the task of creating SD card signals is still not trivial. I don't know exactly how the ZX8302 behaves internally, and which timings are acceptable. For example, the OS even inserts delays when just bit-banging the drive select daisy chain, and I have no idea why this is required. Line lengths? Noise? ZX8302 internal requirements? ... Using the ZX8302 for a completely different purpose might require a lot of time for investigation and experimentation. > and making your interface emulate microdrives? Hehe, nice idea. Unfortunately it would be a pain in terms of speed, also size would be limited by the MDV drivers I guess :) Peter _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
