I'm having no end of trouble trying to get both of my Siemens FDD 100-8 8" floppy drives to consistently work on my S-100 system. It has a Jade Double D rev C floppy disk controller which seems to work fine, but one of the drives seems to have a problem with the read logic, and the other is now intermittently failing to read. More debugging is required, but for a month or two now I haven't been able to do much else with the system.
I'd like to run CP/M on my system, using my other cards (Jade Big-Z Z80A, Jade 64K RAM, CompuPro Interface 4 SIO). I have an image of the existing ROM and images of the CP/M disk that actually runs on the machine.
So, is there an S-100 card that'll let me use a more modern and reliable solution, such as a 3 1/2" floppy drive, or even a 5 1/4?" CompactFlash or similar would also work.
