Description
The PC-510 is compatible with all common floppy disk drives used on
desktop PCs. The PC-510 also drives any standard IDE or EIDE hard
drives that have 16-bit IDE interfaces. The BIOS extension ROM for
the hard drive is supplied on the card so that no additional software is
needed. The floppy drives use DMA channel 2.

drives via the connector at J9.
