Gotek SFR1M44-U100K Floppy Emulator
USB flash-based floppy-drive emulator. This entry records a distinct product or well-defined family; differences among revisions and similarly named models are called out below.
MODEL IDENTIFICATION: Match the full model/part number, revision, and region to the item label and its manufacturer documentation. Where a family has multiple revisions, specifications below are not universal across the family.
Recorded specifications
| Cataloged part | Gotek SFR1M44-U100K Floppy Emulator |
|---|---|
| Era / family | USB flash-based floppy-drive emulator |
| Key specifications | Emulates a 3.5-inch 1.44 MB drive; USB mass storage holds disk images; OLED/rotary controls are optional mods. |
| Interface / fit | Host expects floppy interface and supported Shugart signals; firmware and image format (e.g. HxC/FlashFloppy) affect operation. |
| Variants / identification | Gotek board revisions and installed firmware vary; document PCB revision, firmware, and jumper settings. |
| Archive record | Record full part number, hardware revision, serial/date code, firmware/BIOS, accessories, physical condition, and the documentation revision used for verification. |
Compatibility and handling
- Confirm the complete part number, connector signal/pinout, supported host, dimensions, power, firmware and operating-system requirements before use.
- Inspect for corrosion, cracked parts, bent pins, damaged insulation, failing bearings, leaking cells, or prior repair. Avoid powering unidentified or damaged hardware.
- For compatibility claims, cite a specific manual, CPU support list, interface standard, or tested host configuration; physical fit alone is insufficient.
- Record measurements with the test setup and instrument conditions; distinguish vendor maximums from measured or sustained results.
Model notes
Host expects floppy interface and supported Shugart signals; firmware and image format (e.g. HxC/FlashFloppy) affect operation.
