BlueSCSI is more than a drive emulator. It's an ecosystem. More supported systems than other solutions, great docs, online diag & config tools, vintage OS integration, WiFi, front panel & CD audio support: plus much more than fits in one doot. That's a lot of bang for less than 50 bucks. #bluescsi

The amazing Freddy does it again with the #PicoMEM2 which is a big upgrade (on many levels) on the PicoMEM 1. We will have these in stock very soon..

We are currently shipping preorders for the BlueSCSI Ultra and Ultra Wide. Our website will soon change to "IN STOCK" rather than preorder for the Ultra range (except the SCA version). Exciting, since these are the first BlueSCSI Ultra's to go into the wild 👌

I think it maybe time to implement a new network device for the BlueSCSI for the Amiga so that compatibility with DaynaPORT isn’t required

#PicoGUS is now an ODE! I've just released firmware v3.0.0, which adds Panasonic CD-ROM drive emulation. Put some ISOs or BIN/CUE files on a USB stick, plug it into your PicoGUS, and you've got a virtual CD-ROM drive that works in DOS and Windows 9x and supports CD audio. github.com/polpo/picogu...
