Trudie V5.2 BETA, a acronym for "True IDE" is a advanced IDE interface with automatic byte swapping. This allows you to use CF cards in Windows and ST without the slowdown of normal byte swapping in software. Trudie operates at the maximum possible speed on a 8MHz system. Unlike other inferior IDE interfaces, Trudie supports a wide range of CF cards.
NOTE: You need at least HD8.47 by Uwe Seimet www.hddriver.net to use Trudie. This is 5V only BETA. IDE interface has already been proven and tested in previous builds, though byte swapping (only currently tested in TOS206 with HD10,11) Is new and is in BETA testing. Price for final versions of 5V Trudie will be at least double. V5.2 is sold at discount because of BETA version. Trudie V5.2 is designed for 5V ports on H4/H5 motherboards. It should also work on original machines with all the mandatory fixes done, but is not officially supported.
