*Just tiding up some threads
Some of the Posts were in the wrong place - as the rev 3.1D is no longer made - I redesigned it for 3.1E (much better jumper based design)
Bonus!! charity shops FTW!!!, I love the +2A / B (black) models, they really look the part and with an internal IDE they truly are beasts of deliciousness!
You can use a CF card, as these are small and easy to implement but you can use pretty much anything (non atapi) on the 8bit IDE bus. I have here some 4GB microdrives (CF type II) that work well, as well as a 60GB 2.5" IDE hard disk *(yes 60GB!!!) - although I should say that you only get to access 28.6GB of storage.... for shame.... =/
I can certainly accommodate your needs hit me up in PM =)
Have you received your parcel yet?

I received my package as well. This must have been about two or three weeks ago, I don't know exactly because I've been on holidays.
It seems you have recuperated from your health problems.
Let's hope they don't return!

I am very glad your package arrived, thanks for letting me know.
I also am hoping that such problems don't return - I have a wonderful regimen of vitamins, minerals alongside a lot of others - yes... I am sure I rattle when I walk

I have two left.
The adaptor is compatible with the 48k / 48k+ / 128k and 128k +2 (Grey) as well as the latter Spectrum +3 and +2AB (Black)
You will need to prepare a hard disk device under Pera's Charea DOS - you can use DrvImg for that and then you can put snapshots onto the disk using the same said program.
The adaptor also has a NMI button feature that allows you to load and save snap-shots on the fly =)
I will eventually get round to doing a how too for these systems, sadly I am pressed for time over the next couple of weeks so that will have to wait.
If however you are still interested in having lots of fun with a little adaptor like this, just hit me up in PM =)
