    Default looking for an internal reader

    A mate of mine likes my old Mastercrd2-PC internal card reader and wanted to know where he could get one.

    After an hour or so looking on the web, I've come up empty. Does anyone know of a currently available internal reader that takes up a 3.5" floppy drive bay like the mastercrd2-pc?

    The closest thing I have found is the mastercrd-pcmcia that could go in a pcmcia pci adapter on the backplane. A bit fiddly and expensive.

    I've got my Jaycar mounted in a 31/2" drive bay and it runs more stable on the regulated supply from the PC than it did on an external power pack or batteries.

    Dash.

    It looks like the Jaycar in a floppy bay is the go. Even the original article in Silicon Chip has it mounted like that.
