WERE TO BUY

I bought mine off EBAY from this seller.. They have tons of them https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/273823279504

Bracket that works well as a stand for it. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/194710104596

MODIFICATIONS

ADDED 2ND SERIAL PORT

THIS IS THE CABLE YOU WILL NEED TO ADD COM PORT 2. I'm sure you or a friend will have one laying around.... (doesn't need the metal bracket of course)

ADDED LS-120 / SUPERDISK DRIVE / 1.44MB FLOPPY (IDE FLOPPY DRIVE AS SLAVE)

ADDED FLOPPY TO THE TOP AND COM PORT YOU CAN SEE ON THE BOTTOM

USB HEADER FOR USB 3 AND 4. Waiting on parts to arrive so I can add these..... Its a 2mm pitch connector )Not 2.54 pitch like most USB 2.0 cables

USB 3 ADDED TO THE BOTTOM CORNER.

ADDED USB 4 TO TOP CORNER. IT'S A TIGHT FIT!

USB 3 AT BOTTOM

USB 4 AT THE TOP.

PINOUT TO USB PORT 3 AND 4. MATTING PLUG IS A "JST" "PHD" 2MM SERIES

MODS / TO-DO LIST

1. Add HDD LED " Pins marked HDD LED are NOT the HDD LED on the PCB! Need to buzz out to pin 39 on the IDE plug (Drive Activity)

2. ~~Add and mount USB 2.0 port 3 and 4.~~ DONE!

3. ~~Should be able to add a RESET switch if you want one.~~ TESTED AND WORKS : DONE!

4. Figure out MIC input header pin out on the PCB. In case any one wants a proper MIC input.

5. Slow down CPU via hardware. Figure out how to mod the clock rate on the PCB.

6. Add right angle PCI adaptor and mod case to take a PCI card. Will be QUITE difficult to do....
