Does anyone make an interface card that will permit a "thumb drive" to be
addressed by the classic machines?
Some time ago, I had a sound card on my Packard-Bell 486SX20 machine. It
plugged into the motherboard. There was no specific provision for it in the
BIOS, but the CD-ROM connected to it acted like a "D" drive from Windows
3.1. I don't remember ever trying to access it from DOS, though.
Perhaps, instead of being plugged into the motherboard, this interface could
have the hard drive's ribbon cable plugged into it.
Does anyone make such a beast?
