Better than Gotek and CHEAPER? - Assembling and Setting up SDBox for Amiga
$2 for 1-8 layer PCBs: https://jlcpcb.com/?from=DjPolystation
Today we'll look at a really interesting accessory for the Amiga 500 (and later).
It's the SDBox, an open-source project based on Arduino Nano that allows you to use an SD card via the parallel port of Amiga computers.
In this tutorial, we'll see how to assemble everything and set up the SD card.
We'll also see what differentiates this product from a floppy emulator like the Gotek.
