[Coco] Unleashing the Dragon: native HDB-DOS/SuperIDE for Dragon32

[Mark Marlette]

Bill,

The SuperSD currently supports the FATxx file structure, so yes. Copy directly to SD. Target mounts transparent to the coco.

Target megaread times will be 7-9 seconds.

FLASHpak will be part of the SuperSD.

There will be a USB2.0 COM port on this board as well. This comm port will run at full bandwidth of the coco, not just a usb-serial interface.

My preliminary testing has capped this xfer rate at ~130KB pers second on raw transfers on the device. That is bytes not bits!


It will be a full sized cartridge device.

There will be two SD slots with dual color LEDs for Rd/Wr functions.

That is about it.

Regards,

Mark

Is there a more detailed description anywhere for this? Is this the type of
thing that will allow us to put files directly on the card from a PC, then
simply move the card back over to the SuperSD for running directly on the
CoCo, or does it work the same as an existing solution with a more involved
process?
