`22.Jan.2023` hackster.io	DIY: 2,5-inch IDE-SSD As reported by hackster.io, Collin "dosdude1" Mistr has released the second in a series of open-source solid-state drive (SSD) upgrades for vintage computer hardware. A 1.8-inch ZIF design is now followed by a 2.5-inch IDE SSD compatible with any device that normally uses a 2.5-inch IDE hard drive or a 3.5-inch IDE hard drive with a simple adapter (YouTube video). So it should also be possible to use it in the Amiga 1200 or Amiga 4000. (dr) [News message: 22. Jan. 2023, 13:46] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]

`20.Jan.2023`	PiStorm32-lite: JLCPCB soldering issues Since about three weeks the building instructions and documentation for the PiStorm32-lite are available (amiga-news.de reported). After that, many interested people ordered the necessary parts from JLCPCB. Some problems occurred during assembly, which Andrew 'LinuxJedi' Hutchings now summarises in his latest blog entry: Apparently, the holes in the bottom of the boards were filled with metal balls. This was especially the case with orders placed via JLCPCB's economy service. Basically, the problem could be fixed by poking the balls out from above with a pin. It was quickly found out that the problem was excess solder paste that got into the holes during the Reflow process. In a few cases, however, even the solder penetrated the metal of the plug. The developer goes into detail about the exact reasons for this in the further course of his explanations. (dr) [News message: 20.
