Hi! Several builders have asked about the XT-IDE
V2 PCBs and I have
reordered a batch. They should be here the second week of August.
They will be identical to the previous batch of boards. I will
announce when the PCBs arrive. Please do not send any funds until the
boards
arrive.
What's the difference between the original and V2?

The XT-IDE V2 cleans up the board a bit, adds a bunch of option jumpers,
supports larger EEPROM (8KB-32KB), offers the "chuck mod" IO register
remapping for improved transfer speed (DMA mode not necessary). It also has
a UART for external boot protocol over a serial line. All of this is
supported by the BIOS. It is a group project at
Vintage-Computer.com
forums.
Thanks and have a nice day!
