Multifunction 50-pin SCSI-2 device that emulates hard disks and CD-ROM drives from SD or MMC media.

The Tindie page exposed quantity and CD-audio-jack selectors with a current View Options and Buy path on 2026-07-24. Its destination-dependent shipping messages were inconsistent, so buyers should confirm shipping for their country.

An 8-bit ISA card with switchable classic sound-card modes plus MIDI, USB game-controller, and CD-ROM emulation.

Joe's Computer Museum showed the assembled PicoGUS 2.0 in stock on 2026-07-24. The official site also listed stocked UK and EU sellers. Open design files and build guidance remain available for people who want a DIY board.

PreorderChecked Jul 24, 2026PicoIDEby Ian Scott

Emulates IDE hard disks and ATAPI CD-ROM drives from image files on a microSD card, with optional front-panel and Wi-Fi controls.

Crowd Supply was accepting orders from limited campaign inventory on 2026-07-24, but production was still underway and the original June 2026 shipment had slipped. A June update says production firmware will support two simultaneous devices; the current setup guide still labels the two-device jumper mode as future. The project describes the hardware and firmware as open source, but this pass did not verify a complete public fabrication package.

Emulates IDE or ATAPI hard disks, CD-ROMs, Zip 100 drives, and removable media from image files on an SD card.

Rabbit Hole Computing marked its Compact and Hybrid V2 listings sold out on 2026-07-24. The project's official seller directory linked to AmigaKit, whose ZuluIDE V2 page still offered an Add to Cart path that day. Confirm the connector and DAC variant before ordering.

AvailableChecked Jul 27, 2026ZuluSCSI Family and TinySCSIby Rabbit Hole Computing and ZigZagJoe

Open-firmware SCSI emulators in DB-25, internal 50-pin, laptop, and Wide SCSI form factors.

Rabbit Hole Computing offered current Compact RP2040, Blaster, and Wide variants on 2026-07-24. A 2026-07-27 follow-up found its mostly assembled $25 Pico Slim V1.3 PCB kit sold out, while SamplerZone exposed an Add to Cart path for a $79.95 assembled and cased Pico Slim with configured microSD media. Rabbit Hole's direct Pico2 Slim and Laptop Blaster pages were also sold out. TinySCSI was archived in January 2025, but its V1.0 and V2.0 KiCad files remain available for personal builds. A project discussion documents Wi-Fi DaynaPORT operation on a Pico Slim under System 7.5.5 with the DaynaPORT SCSI-port driver, but does not establish a minimum System version or equivalent networking support for every family variant. Connector, termination, power, speed, and initiator support vary by hardware.
