[Coco] Solid state disk drive

[Rietveld Rietveld]

The Gotek works with my kaypro also. I never tried it with my Heath. Is it the same firmware?

The little Gotek emulators?  I've used one with my Coco 3 just to see if
it worked (it did).

The original firmware is worthless.  Better to pay the modest fee for HxC
firmware replacement:

I use HxC Gotek units with my Heath H89, Kaypro 10, IBM PC and a few other
older boxen that escape my mind at the moment.
