PC 3.5″ front bay · SD-to-IDE adapter (FC1307A) · retro DOS builds

The SD-to-IDE adapter is the retro PC’s best storage trick — a DOS machine that boots from an SD card — and it usually ends up dangling inside the case. Aluminite’s mount puts it in a 3.5″ front bay, card slot facing out, so swapping systems means swapping cards at the front panel.

Modelled for the common FC1307A-based adapter board. Front access turns one retro PC into every retro PC you own: a card for DOS, a card for Windows 98, a card for the test bench.
