  Hi there.
  
  I found this interface for Atari ST long time ago but now I noticed something interesting.
  The interface is for people who has dead floppy-drives on their Atari ST o Amiga 500.
  You have to remove oiginal drive and connect instead the interface. It takes loads images from PC computer (MSA, ST, ADZ, DMS, ADF and others).
  
  Last times a friend of mine point me that the interface has also TR-DOS on-board.
  It can be connected to ZX Spectum +3.
  Loads files: TRD, SCL (but also DSK and Extended DSK).
  
  You can find infos here:
  http://hxc2001.free.fr/floppy_drive_emulator/index.html (the table)
  
  Seems like you can get it here: http://torlus.com/floppy/index.php?en
  
  PS: I'm not sure if +2A/B has somewhere on the mainboard any diskdrive connectors, inside.

  
  This is only FLOPPY DRIVE emulator. But for work with TRDOS on +3 you need connect real betadisc interface to system bus and to FDD cable connect this emulator. BETADISC must be modified for correct work with +3:

  That's just a physical floppy drive emulator, not a controller or anything.
  
  That said, if someone made a BetaDisk or BetaDisk kit that I could plug into my +2A I would buy it in a second.
