SCSI emulation: BlueSCSI-Toolbox v1.3
The BlueSCSI Toolbox combines two utilities for managing a BlueSCSI V2 or ZuluSCSI in an Amiga: the CD changer makes it possible to switch between CD ISO images on the SD card during operation. The SD transfer tool can be used to transfer files from the SD card to the Amiga.
The new version 1.3 contains various corrections by Stefan Reinauer and also offers support for 68000 CPUs.
This is what this #BlueSCSI does
edit: counting on an ASCII/Binary table looks like the 5th bit is dropped out
On my classic Macs with DB25 SCSI ports, is there any reason why I'd NOT settle on just using the DB25 #BlueSCSI over the internal versions? With easy access to the SD, the Pico WiFi being outside and no I/O performance hit... it just seems advantageous, no?
I added a right angle DB25 adapter so the BlueSCSI is upright and parallel to the back of the case to reduce rear clearance, too (helpful on my display shelves).
Curious for opinions! #vintagemac #retrocomputing
Is there a clever way to update a #BlueSCSI V2 that's tucked away inside a PowerBook without opening it first?
SCSI-Emulation: BlueSCSI V2026.03.01
BlueSCSI is a SCSI hardware replacement for the Amiga and other retro systems. It emulates SCSI drives such as hard disks or optical drives using the Pi Pico PR2040 and Pico 2 RP2350. The recently released firmware version 2026.03.01-RC2 for BlueSCSI v2 and Ultra/Ultra Wide includes bug fixes and enhancements, and in particular significant optimizations for WLAN speed and AmigaNET support.
