SCSI EMUHDD

IDE EMUHDD

[ SCSI Manual IDE Manual ] EMUHDD ("Emulator of Hard Disk Drive") is a combined technology that allows to emulate any kind of hard disk or magneto optic or removable drive. Communication with the machinery host supports a wide range of protocols, ATA-IDE, PATA-IDE, ULTRA-SCSI, SCSI I, SCSI II. Data is stored on a choice of supports, CF or modern SDC, and always easily accessible on PC for quick backup/restore. Each EMUHDD is custom configured to match exactly the geometry of the original drive (name, size, tracks, sectors...). There's no limit about the OS supported by the emulation: Win/Dos/Unix and any other legacy operating system. Depending on the application you'll be also given a recommended preventive maintenance guide, each 1/5 years, ensuring a unique 0% failure rate over time.

Network EMUFDD

[ NET Manual ] EMUFDD ("Emulator of Floppy Disk Drive") is a specific technology to emulate any kind of floppy disk drive, 8"/5.25"/3.5". Data is stored on an internal FRAM buffer that behaves like a hard disk, no data loss at power down. Robust TCP/IP networking, 80x faster than serial RS232, and industrial grade communication with an unlimited number of distributed PCs. Safety emulation/networking interlock and retrasmission ensure reliable data exchange under any circumstances. Text scripting support is included for seamless DNC integration. In case of "network down", an additional and fully-functional USB port is also available. No preventive maintenance is necessary because of the unique 20 years data retention warranty.

USB EMUFDD

[ USB Manual ] Based on the same technology of the Network EMUFDD, the USB-only version is suitable for users with no access to a network connection or exchanging a very low amount of daily data. Same internal FRAM buffer, that behaves like a hard disk, can be loaded/saved using a standard USB key. No need to pre-format the USB key with special hidden partition or to keep the USB key always in after data exchange. 00-99 numbered display can be used to choose subdirectories and non-standard images, both fully supported.
