Similar modules also get used on EISA boards to retain the eisa board configurations . I'm fairly certain I saw a video a long time ago of 'marco reps' on youtube where he replaced a similar battery backed sram module with another module that didn't need a battery. Now if I only could remember …

Re: Looking for new “portable” 4k LCD
Posted on 2024-05-08, 21:58
I think mickeysoft said it best, 640x480 should be enough for everyone. that aside. i'd be doubtful about those cheap screen being actually '4k'. there might be a total of 4k R, G, B pixels on there, as in 3840x2160, but you'd have to divide it by three to get a real idea. So likely 1280x720 though …
Re: At which point does pcie nvme become faster?

Do you mean you are asking at which hardware point, ie from which hardware specs on is an nvme drive faster ? I've had an nvme drive attached to a thunderbolt3 controller connected to an X58 mainboard attain 2Megabyte/s in linux. was even hot swappable. Pretty sure it's also possible in windows if …

Today I grabbed two things. First was a cute little Blue Lightning. IMG_3394.jpg I don't really have a place to put it yet, but I'm sure it'll find its way in to something at some point. The more interesting find was the PPro board, complete with a 200/256k processor. I'll probably throw it in to …
Re: Announcing a new (Ultra-2) SCSI emulator. Help me define some features!

I wonder now what would be required to make it work in an old AS/400 system which uses 12 UW-SCSI hard drives, scsi tape drive & scsi cdrom. I have no idea if the system can boot with generic drives, nor do i have cdrom or tape to re-install the software. figuring that out might be a hassle.

Well it's hardware for retro hardware. A proper diagnostics card. Needless to say, more chips = better. 😉 DSC_8937.JPG The cheapest card (top) works fine in a PCI slot, but in an ISA slot, not so much. I can't recall how many times I've shown & said it nor if I already told you, so here it goes …

Yeah, I searched for over an hour myself. I have several adapters for 2.5 disks, but not for this one ! Welcome to the confused discussion !! I'm not confused by the fact that it's a USB C connector, I just looked at your photo and the google results. After looking at some more photos it's clear …

Well, your project sounds really cool. I forgot about tape drives and ls120. If you have removable drive support even floppy drives would be possible. I was thinking maybe even a bluray drive would be possible but, were there any bluray scsi drives made and the drm features would likely be a …

you could add the ability to Identify a target as a specific drive, ie any identity information that a normal drive would give would be given by the emulated target when the specific drive information is available and the target is set to give out specific information. SCSI scanner support, just add …

I found a datasheet describing a more recent but similar card. (https://partners.trendcontrols.com/trendproducts/cd/pl/pdf/en-ta200241-uk0yr0608.pdf) Page 2 seems to explain that the card is indeed managed through serial and is only using the ISA bus for power.

Saw this card in a flea market. My brain just went "it's an ISA card, must buy". It looked like a serial port interface, and the fact that it has a Z80 CPU made it interesting. Paid 1€ for it Upon closer inspection... I don't know what it is. It only uses 7 contacts of the ISA slot (haven't yet …
