CFFA3000 Project Definition
- A CompactFlash / USB flash drive interface for Apple II family of
computers
- Support 1 to 13 partitions under ProDOS and GS/OS, and 2 virtual
floppy drives
- Virtual Floppy image support allows the use of almost any
non-copy-protected floppy disk image, including .dsk, .2mg, and .nib files.
Note: .nib files of protected floppies will not work with the CFFA3000
- Allows storage of thousands of floppy and smartport disk images
- User configurable partition count
- Boot from either device and any partition
- Allow booting from Dos3.3, Pascal, CPM, Contiki, ProDOS or GS/OS
directly from the Interface card (for a floppy-less system)
- Configurable as a CFFA smart port controller (i.e. a mass storage
device) or as a floppy controller, or both. When configured as both, requires 2
slots in your Apple II, one for the physical card, and one for the virtual
floppy controller.
- Hardware supports DMA, although v1.0 software does not currently
support DMA. Future support is planned, but not guaranteed.
