i had this idea of making like a mini C64 with an SD card reader for the disk slot, but I can't find SD cards under 1gb, kinda cheapens the idea to me

I too remember that weirdly satisfying feel of sliding the magical 5 1/4 black plastic square home into its slot. However they did always feel fragile. I was always worried I would break them or the drive. But sovl, they did have.

did you fags use to call 3 1/2 inch DD drives soulless back then?

>> No.9072954

>>9072450
And nothing of value was lost. You know it's true. It's not like drives are impossible to find either.

No, we loved them because capacity was so precious back then. Plus they were smaller and tougher so you could pack them into boxes easily. Very handy since a backup could use 10-20 of them or more.
