xum1541 USB/floppy drive interface
- a fast USB floppy interface I designed. Notably, it supports the
nibtools protocol for backing up protected disks.
C64 Preservation Project
- a lot of original floppies are degrading fast, especially ones from small
game publishers. I help out by updating the
nibtools (was mnib)
archiving software and contributing
images
when I find a rare floppy. Many of the same
protection methods
used back then are applicable today.
Intro to the X1541 cables - if you want
to do your own nibbling, you'll need a cable to connect your 1541 floppy
drive to your PC.
