Amiga 3000 Gotek V2 USB disk drive emulator base

thingiverse

Sep-14-2017 (Update)\r\nAdded a "v2" STL version which moves the USB port more centered to the floppy drive opening, widened the original 3 digit LED display cutout and moved it back slightly to now support an OLED display for use with firmwares such as FlashFloppy. See the documentation of FlashFloppy for more details about OLED displays like "0.91" IIC I2C Serial SPI OLED LCD Display 128x32 3.3V/5V AVR PIC STM32 Arduino".\r\n\r\n\r\n------------------------------------\r\n(Sep 3, 2017) This remix is based on the fantastic Amiga 500 Gotek USB disk drive emulator base but for the Amiga 3000 desktop computer. See the original by _CrazyBob_ for additional details.\r\n\r\nTo mount this in an Amiga 3000 you will need the metal drive sled that comes with the Amiga 3000. I simply screwed this gotek sled to the drive plate from underneath, up through the plate's screw holes into the plastic sled. The same process applies if you were placing a hard drive into the metal sled.\r\n\r\nThe last photo shows an --unpublished at this time-- LCD floppy bay cover that works like the original floppy bay cover and is removable, allowing you to use your original floppy drive if desired (configured as DF1 with the Gotek as DF0). \r\n\r\nFor aesthetics, I recommend using a mini OLED display that will fit in the original gotek LED display cutout. This eliminates the need for an external LCD clip-on drive cover holder. See http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302110929185.\r\n\r\nI highly recommend flashing your Gotek with Keir Fraser's excellent "FlashFloppy" gotek firmware, which is much better than the old Cortex and works like HxC but is free to use. It supports LCD displays and floppy sounds! See https://github.com/keirf/FlashFloppy.
