Any news on the project?

I've corrected my cabling and it works great! Thanks for your comments

Progress; I think i have faulty connection in my cable; On the left my cable. on the right correct diagram ( i suppose) So first i will desolder FD14 to DIN5. then desolder FD10 to DIN8 and solder to DIN5. Will this be enough? Also this correct guide states all the odd pins must be connected to 3 and 7. Is that mandatory? if i leave like this (Only 13 and 27 connected to 3 and 7) will i be in trouble again?

Will try to get help from wife and she has twins 5 months I will try my chance. But meanwhile, I will measure my cable now. I will list which pin goes to where. This will be a good start. Because my friend maybe did something wrong in cable.

If you tell me how to check pins i can do that. I am not experienced.

If i boot from gotek i can boot from gotek. And if boot from internal i can boot from internal no problems. But never access both drives same time.

If i boot from Gotek. I can. If i boot from Internal. I can. Problem is i cannot access both same time.

My 1040STe has some modifications; Quadtos (1.06-.1.62-2.06-SuperTOS) And boot floopy selector (by wiring 2 of yamaha chip pins) I did that because wanted to boot from my gotek (which has HxC fw) now i don't need to boot from gotek anymore. All i want is copy from st to real disk. but i tried every combination but no way my ste see the contents of a and b drive same time. so i cannot copy disks. What do i do wrong? Whatever i do, I cannot access both drives. Only one works. My friend made this mod. Let's see if my mod is faulty. Pin 19 Chip --> Red --> SW 3 Pin 20 Chip --> Green --> SW 6 Pin 19 MB --> White --> SW 2 Pin 20 MB --> White --> SW 5 Switch numbering (Solder Side) 1-2-3 4-5-6 There is also 2 blue wires soldered; Blue Wire 1 --> SW 1 to SW 6 Blue Wire 2 --> SW 4 to SW 3 Conclusion; SW Left (External Boot) 1(which connected to 6) to 2 --> 19 MB to 20 Chip 4(Which connected to 3) to 5 --> 20 MB to 19 Chip SW Right (Internal Boot) 2-3 --> 19 MB to 19 Chip 5-6 --> 20 MB to 20 Chip
