ZuluIDE™ is a IDE computer storage emulation platform, where CD-ROM drive images are stored on a standard FAT32 or exFAT-formatted SD card. SDXC cards of up to 512GB are supported. ZuluIDE™ is a derivative of the ZuluSCSI; instead of SCSI, it's an ATAPI/IDE interface.
We are primarily making it available for the Roland SP808, to replace the included ZipDrive, but anyone who wants a ZuluIDE can buy it!
Comes with a mounting tray, a 64GB Micro SD card, and also some features specifically pertaining to the Roland SP808 - an "eject switch" which. though doesn't eject the SD card, it sends a eject signal so the SP808 enters "diskless mode" so it can be safely powered down. It also comes with a zuluide.ini file on the SD card that supports this, and a 650mb image properly named to be "ZipDrive compliant".
Last but not least, ZuluIDE comes with a BERG->Molex power adapter so it can be powered by the SP808 itself.
