Is there anything you recommend or recommend avoiding ? Thanks! John
I use a Megasatan on my Mega ST. I used standoffs and mounted it to the metal sheild so the SD cards area ccessible through the accessory card slot in the rear. It's connected internally to the header. When it came to my Atari STacy, I was feeling cheap. I went with the ASCI2SD thing that uses the blue pill STM32 board. The good news is it works fine, the bad news is that they were using cut down DB25 connectors and it wasn't really setup for the pin header that you find internal to the STacy (which is probably similar to the pin header internal to the Mega 2.) I started to CAD out a board that would replace the DB19 on an Atari ST with a shim, then mount a ASCI2SD on top so that the SD card and update USB port are accessible through the hole where the DB19 is on say a 520ST. But haven't finished it. My goal was to make the pinout from the shim to the board identical to the STacy header so it's dual use. But never finished it all. I figure 520 STs are kind of useless and suck since the floppy is external, but if you did a ASCI2SD internal and one of those RAM upgrades -- then it's pretty killer and compact. I didn't know (but not surprised) about the FujiNet, will be interesting to see what it is like and what form factor. The SCSI2SD is cool, but I have a lot of random vintage computers and at $90 a system it gets cost prohibitive. So I am digging the blue pill SCSI stuff (Props to Ben who introduced me to it.) - Ethan
