I bought mine from Amiga Kit in the UK, but there are other vendors. My Gotek Here’s how the Gotek looks like when I got it from Amiga Kit. So the HxC software nowadays works on non HxC hardware as well. That firmware has since been ported to work on Gotek, that’s why a Gotek can run HxC. Yes, the HxC was originally a custom hardware floppy emulator running the HxC firmware (doh). The Gotek is also easy to mod with an OLED display and potentiometer! It’s available on eBay or in stores that sell stuff for vintage computers. By flashing it with a custom firmware like FlashFloppy or HxC, it can support other formats. More on that later… The two floppy emulators side by side About the GotekĪ stock Gotek only emulates a PC floppy. After the swap was done, I realized the Gotek was a great replacement and actually suited me and the EII better. I decided to replace the HxC Floppy Emulator with a Gotek Floppy Emulator running FlashFloppy! The primary reason was that I needed the HxC’s more advanced jumper settings in another project. Pretend that the HxC is a Gotek, then use the installation instructions and configuration from this post! Background

If you want to install a Gotek in your EII, go to this post and see how I did all the cabling and mounted a 5.25” adapter. I have decided to replace the HxC I installed five years ago with a Gotek. Also the HxC on Gotek now has some new exciting features, like like a virtual USB stick accessible via Wi-Fi! The post has been updated to reflect the current statuses of the products. Update : Seems like I was running an ancient version of the HxC software when this was written.
