Hi,

FYI, I've been busy the last two months developing an SD-based hard
drive for my Apple //c, kind of like the SPIISD but adapted to my
needs: it is daisy-chainable, which means you can still use your
external floppy disk drive(s) when it's plugged.

I have published it as open hardware, free software. See 
https://www.colino.net/wordpress/burgerdisk-an-apple-ii-smartport-hard-drive/
for more information.

As there has been interest for pre-built units in the community, I've
launched a small Kickstarter so I can plan better on how many parts I
need to get in order to make people happy:

Hope you'll like it!
