What is it

65Link is a file server for your Acorn BBC model B/B+/Master (Windows & Linux compatible).

Features :

• Sets up a data link between a BBC model B/B+/Master and a host running RISC OS, Windows or Linux, via a connection between the user port of the former and the (at least PS/2 mode capable) parallel port of the latter.
• Enables, via this link, files of your BBC to be stored and manipulated on the harddisc of the host machine (in named volumes, each containing up to eight 'drives'), using a full featured, DFS-like filing system called LFS, second processor support included.
• Offers very fast file access and transfer, and virtually unlimited storage space.

Note that 65Link requires a special parallel cable to be made, and LFS to run on the Acorn BBC model B/B+/Master (i.e. an EPROM to be blown with LFS, and inserted into a free sideways ROM socket).

65Link is Freeware.
