When you use the Any Drive Formatter software you can format each drive independently allowing each device to be formatted in its own specific manner. Many people who own a network of different computers all using the same Windows operating system will benefit from using Any Drive Formatter on all of their storage devices. You can create your own password for the NAS computer and copy any files you want onto the NAS hard disk. In fact, Any Drive Formatter will perform a few functions that a regular floppy drive will not. Any Drive Formatter will perform the same functions that a floppy drive format program does. If you need help with formatting your windows external hard disk, all you need to do is follow some simple instructions. I found the first 'virtual' FAT12 offset for the VD0 to be at position (int) 32256B (which parted also shows), with a gap of 1572864 between all the virtual FAT12 file systems, and used it to make this): The FS's are all 'virtual' FAT12s inside a larger FAT12/16 (it mentions both), and for the example I (it's more a POC) make 100 folders and mount the drives in each. I looked earlier and found this - it looks to be EXACTLY the same (looks-wise) as the model I have, only mine is grey and doesn't have the IPCAS sticker on the front, oh and it was about ~?95 not ?250!Īnyway, I thought I'd go about finding out how to get this working in linux (not formatting, just accessing and modifying the files), so I fired up my hex editor and this is what I came up with. Another downside is the software to configure the USB drive is windows only and was sent as a ZIP when I won the auction via email.

It's not fast, and literally is the same speed a floppy unfortunately. The model I got is brandless and has the floppy connections on the back, with 2x7-segment displays on the front, a USB port and buttons to change the floppy number (00-99 = 100 images) which I use with a 256MB generic USB drive. Years ago, I got a USB emulator off ebay for use in my SNES GD7.
