Almost Rice Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 ECI/Cart port to PBI converter. I do not know if anything was ever made for just the ECI port. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Jefferson Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 Mainly hard drive interfaces... there are many to choose from, some vintage, some new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sl0re Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 sl0re: would You rather have board of such size sticking out of Your atari? It is of such size... plus a big ECI adapter! (you can't run lots of ribbon cable with parallel to hide stuff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 being resolved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sl0re Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) being resolved Yeah, I've read some of the thread via Google translator. PS I hope they throw in a male 50 pin header 'slot' along with the more common female type. So we can put our IDEa's into plastic cases and throw them in too. Otherwise there will still be adapters and ribbon cables and big stuff hanging off the side. Edited March 13, 2009 by sl0re Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

candle Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 that one external device idea was buried internal device with 7x10cm stackable cards (like in falcon) emerged but those are just thoughts for now also its being targeted only at atari 130xe motherboards, and whole region of freddie/dram is being wiped out just to make the space nessesery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
