[Vente] Low Cost high performance Hard Disk unit for Atari ST/E
Thanks to the thread of friendly user DataPro:
http://forum.system-cfg.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12773
this device has been available for indirectly in this forum
(thanks a lot to the users that bought one following DataPro very detailed thread),
but probably a dedicated sales thread is better.
Low cost Hard Disk interface compatible with Atari ST family computers,
and tested on a 520ST TOS 1.04, 1040STFM TOS 1.04, 1040STE TOS 1.06, 1040STE TOS 1.62 and 1040STE with TOS 2.06; with ok results.
Results: The ACSI2STM works perfectly; 1 MB/s read and 700 KB/s writing with the last firmware
Update
from 15 May 2022 the common problem with many power sources is solved,
The problem was the usage of micro USB port for powering;
now each hard disk unit comes with an attached and soldered USB cable.
Operation video,
How to operate the device:
A video from the user PSIQ, many thanks!
Writing and reading from the hard disk interface:
On the last video, a game running from hard disk is shown; with "/" key, a savestate is created. After successful hard disk file writing, the game is closed pressing "*" key, and the STE system returns to desktop. A copy of the generated GS00.TOS file is created, renaming it to GS01.TOS; finally the game is resumed loading the copy of the savestate, GS01.TOS . All these operations are performed correctly.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each unit is completely built and tested,
price is 36€ + tracked shipment (6,5€ for Spain or 10,5€ for Europe; 10,5€ for America, EE.UU. , 11,5€ for Canada, Japan and Australia).
Lower cost and better SD card compatibility than any Satan disk, and much lower price than UltraSatan.
Its the Atari ST hard disk suitable for the masses,
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An update, about tested micro SD card brands and types:
-Micro SD cards that work ok:
Sandisk de 1 GB
Kingston 8 GB class 4
Kingston 4 GB class 4
Intenso 8 GB class 4
Intenso 16 GB class 6
Intenso 4 GB class 10
Intenso 8 GB class 10
Kingston 16 GB class 10
Sandisk 16 GB class 6
Kingston 1 GB (tested by Shaoth)
Kingston 2 GB (tested by Shaoth)
Philips 64 GB UHS-1 A1 V10 Micro SDXC (tested by Shaoth)
Sandisk Extreme Plus 64 GB UHS-3 Micro SDXC (tested by Shaoth)
Samsung Evo Plus 128 GB UHS-3 Micro SDXC (tested by Shaoth)
-Micro SD cards that do not work:
Cloudisk 512 MB
No brand 4 GB
MediaRange 8 GB class 10
Sandisk 32 GB class 10 UHS 1 (most probably any UHS 1 will fail, due to these reject to operate in 1 bit mode)
Briefly, Sandisk, Kingston and Intenso are the preferred ones
