Changes
/* Introduction */ - added images of the CPC-IDE prototype
== Introduction and development == [[Image:Cpc-ide.jpg|200px|thumb|Prototype of the CPC-IDE interface]]
In Autumn 2004 the CPC-IDE was developed by [[Dr.Zed]] with support from [[Octoate]], [[Tolkin]] and [[TFM]]. It was the first hardware solution ever that allowed connection of IDE harddrives and CF cards to the CPC with the maximum possible data transfer speed. Technically the CPC-IDE interface was based on the GIDE IDE interface by Tilmann Reh.
After getting it working successfully, [[Dr.Zed]] and [[Prodatron]] made plans for a second version, which includes a lot of more extensions. So the '''SYMBiFACE II''' is not now merely an IDE interface. It merges the CPC with current PC technology.
