December 20th, 2009 No comments

D64 Editorfrom Homepage:

This program is not completely finished, not all of the features that I’d like are included yet. There may also be bugs that I have not found, but I’ve fixed all of the bugs I’ve found so far.

Here some features:

  • Read D64 files, display the directory, move files around the directory, rename files.
  • Export files from the D64 into PRG files.
  • Import files into the D64 with autodetection for P00 files.
  • View/Edit the BAM.
  • View the block chain of files on the D64.
  • Create new blank D64 files, clean existing D64′s.
  • View and modify blocks on the disk in hex.
  • Automatic check for crosslinked files on the D64.
  • View the directory using the native c64 font.
  • SEQ File Viewer using the c64 font with PETASCII->ASCII conversion option.
  • Drag and Drop functionality. Drag D64′s onto the main screen to load them, drag other files to import them.
  • Preliminary support for importing T64′s.
  • A filename builder to enable easy use of the C64 Characterset in filenames.

Scsi Mirror Syquest 44Mb

Autopsy:

Many thanks to a friend for the Apple SCSI terminator.

Hints: Macintosh Plus can boot from Cartridges.

from Wikipedia:

SyQuest Technology, Inc., now known as SYQT, Inc., was an early entrant into the removable hard disk market for personal computers. The company was started in 1982 by Syed Iftikar; it was named partially after himself because of a company meeting wherein it was decided that “SyQuest” ought to be a shortened name for “Sy’s Quest”.

Its earliest products were 3.9″ (100mm) removable hard drives, and 3.9″ (100mm) ruggedized hard drives for IBM XT compatibles and military applications. Some of their early fixed drives appear to be rebranded Seagate drives, especially when one compares the drive lists on this data recovery site with this product table. For many years SyQuest held the market, particularly as a method of transferring large desktop publisher documents to printers.

SyQuest aim their products to give personal computer users “endless” hard drive space for data-intensive applications like desktop publishing, Internet information management, pre-press, multimedia, audio, video, digital photography, fast backup, data exchange, archiving, confidential data security and easy portability for the road.
