Dobbertin Harddisc

7 bytes added, 10:14, 11 November 2015
One of the first ways to connect a Harddisc to the CPC.
 
The Dobbertin harddisc has a capacity of 20 MB.
 
The disc was partitioned in four partitions of 5152 KB each.
 
It was delivered with drivers for [[CP/M]] (2.2 and CP/M+) and allows up to 512 directory entries for each partition (including date and time stamps under CP/M Plus).
 
It's even possible to boot CP/M Plus from the hard disc.
