Archiving Mac 800kB 💾 disks with Adafruit Feather & fluxengine
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
jepler picked up some retro Apple floppy disks online. With Adafruit_Floppy and the Adafruit fork of fluxengine, they read out the data and loaded it in a Mac emulator. What a blast from the past, dithered "screen posters" using After Dark technology & comic book artwork. Not all drives can read Mac floppies, a Sony drive worked but a Panasonic didn't. #arduino #floppy #retro #fluxengine @jeffepler ----------------------------------------- Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------
