Pulsar 9000 Solid State Drive Arrangement

A gotek is a more convenient and reliable option for loading programs from disk images than actual disks. I just load the HFE files onto a USB stick for the gotek and then use with a 50 pin to 34 pin adapter to connect.

A gotek will never match an 8″ drive for beauty!

Where required and possible, the terminal option has been configured for Televideo 925.

The first number is disk id of the source image. The second number is gotek disk number of the source image.

There seem to be bugs in some commands (eg DIR) when the user number hits double figures – this seems to be just with the hard disk.
