Apple II HXC modded GotekAdapter
Thisadapter allows you to connect an HXC firmware modded Gotek to your Apple IIcomputer to emulate a 5.25" floppy drive and load disk images without theneed of a real floppy drive.
Supported Models include: Apple II, Apple II plus, Apple IIe, Apple IIc, Apple IIc Plus, Apple IIgs, and Macintosh with Apple IIe card.
Thisadapter makes it so much simpler as you no longer have to build your own cable. Without this adapter you would need to wire up the below pinout yourself:
