SD2IEC is a card reader designed for Commodore computers.
It is compatible with: Commodore 64, C64C, C128, C128D, VIC-20, C16, C116, PLUS4, and SX64.

Support is provided for SD cards with capacities of up to 32 GB.

- GEOS.
LCD Displays:
- SD2IEC firmware version;
- drive number (can be changed with the drive switch button on the back);
- name of the current directory;
- name of the currently loaded file / disk image.
The screen comes handy especially in the case of games and multi-disk programs while the name of the currently loaded disk image makes using the computer much easier.
The package includes:
- SD2IEC;
- shielded serial cable (~100 cm);
- USB power cable;
- TAPE/USB power adapter for C64, C128, and VIC-20.
- SD card (optional).
Compatibility
It has to be noted that SD2IEC is not fully compatible with the original disk drive.
Original 1541 drives were exceptionally slow and game developers employed various programming tricks and hacks to make the loading process faster.
For example, the processor inside the drive was used to carry out additional calculations.
It is estimated that, as of now, SD2IEC is capable of running over 70% of the games designed for Commodore 64 computers.
