Radius '020 accelerator with SE FDHD/SuperDrive?
Posted by: JC8080 on 2022-08-20 13:49:35
Does anyone know if a Radius '020 accelerator (25mhz specifically) will work with a FDHD/SuperDrive SE and be able to use 1.44mb floppies?

My guess would be yes. I have a Radius 16Mhz Accelerator in one of my SE's with and 800k drive; I can't think of a reason why it wouldn't work with a 1.44Mb onw.

One reason might be that it patches the floppy code in the ROM. Accelerator cards impacted the floppy drive timings.
