USB-64 – Turning C64 into a USB host for Mass Storage Drives

USB-64 – Turning Commodore 64 into a USB host for Mass Storage Drives.

The prototype uses two devices:

  • A cartridge to provide software and commands to operate the USB device.
  • A user-port device that interfaces with the USB stick.

With the proto-type it is possible to transfer files at 1.2 kB/s (serial) or 9.5 kB/s parallel.

    Hey,

    sorry for hijacking the comments – just wanted to say hi! This is gilligan Ex-Oldskool/Capital/DCS.
    I just found your new website the other day and it’s really nice. I think you should put up
    an archive with all the console charts as well somewhere. console world and mgsci(?) .. can’t recall the name of the one that fazwonga/OS did ;)

    best regards,
    gilligan
