These drives were used on many computer models as boot and diagnostic load devices. The FES-1 replaces the older floppy drives integrating the solid state Arraid Flash Drive “AFD” with industrial grade (SLC) CF media for improved reliability and maintainability.
The FES-1 directly replaces LP/FD interface floppy drives integrating our solid state ARRAID FLOPPYFlash Drive “AFDD”
The AFFD is also available able to support and directly replace other legacy floppy drives 'plug and play'.
The AFFD replaces legacy floppy disk drives, using removable Compact Flash. No additional software or register changes are required to the legacy host. Network backup and restore capability supported through on board RJ45 ethernet port.
The AFFD is available with SLIM-26, FLAT-34, 5.25” & 8 Shugart edge connector interfaces with full height and half height frames.
The drive will replace both soft and hard sectored and may be set to operate at various data rates with the matching data encoding schemes, FM, MFM, or MMFM. Similarly, the emulated track configuration is programmable.
The AFFD is designed as a drop in replacement to the industrial/ OEM & maintenance provider space.
The AFFD is not suitable for home/hobbyist usage.
