Van Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 How about a SD card in a SIO plug? OTOH too easy to loose! Van Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashjazzcat Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 Wow. I start to wonder why I'm fannying around with SIO2SDs if they can be built that small... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mimo Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 so who is going to make some? I don't need the case although it would be nice, but a great device to install into an Atari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnBuell Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 (edited) I'd be afraid of losing a drive that small, and the microSD card with it! Still freaking cool though Edited May 6, 2011 by JohnBuell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Philsan Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Ha! How badly do you want one of these Little 810 Drives? Very nice (one 1050 and one XF551 version for me please)! But I would like to know something more. For example, why is it much smaller than SDrive (and obviously SIO2SD)? Perhaps one problem is that you cannot swap disks.

kurtm Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 But I would like to know something more. For example, why is it much smaller than SDrive (and obviously SIO2SD)? Perhaps one problem is that you cannot swap disks. 1 - Uses MicroSD instead of plain SD 2 - Has a cable wired directly in - SDrives use a port (either SIO or DB15) 3 - The SDrive was designed to be easy to put together. The only surface mount part is the SD reader. 4 - SDrive and SIO2SD have user-accessible controls (and SIO2SD has a display). This has none of that. I know with the SDrive NUXX, once c0nsumer knew what enclosure he was using, he made the board that size, because making it smaller would only make things harder. And he wanted all the controls laid out well. He even revised the design to give extra space between components to make it easy for hobbyists to put it together. --Kurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Has anyone gotten ahold of rossum to see if he'd be willing to do a run of these? Does anyone see any drawbacks compared to the other solutions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimo Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 how do you get hold of him, I can't see any way of personal contact on that site. Only drawback I can see is not being able to swap discs/load multiple discs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple of people have posted in his comments thread, he also stated the 3D plans and everything would be posted up eventually Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fibrewire Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 A slightly larger version would be cool. One that accepts full size SD cards. But why stop there??? Mini Atari 815 with DUAL SD slots FTW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
