In that case the program refuses to work saying it’s not a “FAT-12″ image file.

Maybe there’s also appropriate software for Mac OS or Linux, but I don’t know.

Regarding this I found a PDF document on the CD of my version with the name “REPAIR SOLUTION – VB516.pdf”.

If one has the old version, it is recommended to replace the resistors by 1 kOhm-resistors. If the value is 102 (= 1 kOhms), it’s already the updated version. One can distinguish the updated version by the values of “RN4″ to “RN6″ (red square in the picture). For the updated version certain chip-resistors have been reduced in their values, so that the detection runs reliable. “updated version” refers to a schematic error, that could have lead to the computer failing to detect that the drive is ready (please insert a disk…). On Amazon or ebay there are always a lot offers for about 20€ for the Gotek devices. Also, I feel the price of the HxC-emus a bit overdrawn. I decided for this paticular drive, because it (theoretically) can deal with 1000 disks and supports HD. This article should prove the opposite, since I successfully exchanged my internal HD-drive for the floppy-emu “SFR1M44-U100 updated version” from “Gotek”. One can find a lot of stuff and rumors about the “HxC floppy emulators” in relevant forums and also, that “cheap” alternatives won’t work with computers like Amiga or Atari.
