Yes, I'm currently in the process of getting the DREM working with a Tandy 6000 and
Xenix. I can format and I can do MFM reads but I am currently having an issue with CRC
checks during writes which are failing for the Tandy's WD1010 controller. I think
it's an easy fix so I'm in contact with the DREM team and hopefully it will be
going well soon. I'll keep you updated. Overall, I think it's a pretty solid
product and a great solution to the dwindling supply of working MFM drives. Plus, backups
are super easy with the SD card support. And the detailed logging allowed me to easily
pinpoint the issue with the CRC checks.
After receiving an update to the firmware from the incredibly helpful DREM team I?ve been
able to install XENIX on my Tandy 6000 with the DREM HD emulator!
