Was this a feature added to later firmware, or are you maybe confusing with the BlackBox? Edit: or maybe you mean the clunk-clunk sound of the physical HDD head moving when accessed, compared to total silence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much Mr. Flashjazzcat! Glad you like it. NOTE: The SIDE.SYS, COLLEEN.SYS and various MYIDE.SYS drivers (for stand-alone SIDE HDD operation, etc) included in the latest firmware release have the same HDD IO noise facility, accessed by the '/N' switch. For example, one might edit CONFIG.SYS on the SIDE2 SDX ROM by adding the switch thus: DEVICE SIDE /N Then you'll get HDD noise. 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what version I'm on but I'm sure someone can provide details (MG?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've burned an EPROM with the later 1.41 I think, but haven't got around to trying it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
