MicroSolutions CompatiCard I PC XT 8-bit ISA Floppy Controller VINTAGE 1987 - $1,100 - (Covington, KY)

MicroSolutions CompatiCard I PC XT 8-bit ISA Floppy Controller VINTAGE 1987. This is a very rare controller and highly sought after. The CompatiCard is a versatile floppy disk controller card for the IBM PC, XT, AT, and compatibles. The CompatiCard can be used as a direct replacement for the IBM PC/XT floppy disk controller. It also allows the use of a 5.25 inch drive (360KB, 800KB, or 1.2MB in any PC, XT, or AT), and possibly other computers. For use with 8" Floppy Disk Drives, you will need a drive cable adapter. You can make an adapter cable yourself with some basic ribbon cable and a little work. I have no way of testing the card, however it was working when pulled from my SWAN XT-10 years and years ago. The card is in good physical shape and has been stored in an anti-static bag all these years. Includes ORIGINAL manual (First edition September 1987), additional documentation, ORIGINAL 5 1/4" floppy disk with drivers (the disk is readable and I just made copies of the files onto another computer), and a floppy drive cable that I made way back when. Cable is 7' long and the connectors are about 1' apart. Being sold AS-IS.
