Well I connected to Berg connector to try to give the drive just power not connected to anything else. It started smoking from the board. Either I had it connected wrong or the voltages were not standard with berg connector or it was possibly an upside down Berg connector. It didn't make a sound...
The seller of that ram card upgrade for the 48k Spectrum just added the card Edge pass through because I asked him to because I wanted to add the div MMC SD card. He literally just did this a couple weeks ago when I bought it so he said it may or may not work he doesn't have one to test we'll...
