Hello readers, there
Hi,
data transfer from an SD card takes 0.4 microsecond per Byte in the most
simple mode, while the minimum cycle of the QL bus is 1.0 microsecond. So
both IDE and SD card are faster than the QL bus.
SD cards are smaller and cheaper than IDE drives. Both offer more size
than a QL filesystem

Everything you say is true. Common sense.
The main problem you have to overcome is 25 years of inertia. People are
familiar with hard drives. Also, people seem to think SD cars are dinky
like microdrives.

It's interesting that this is a D07- machine. My first QL was a D07- with JM
ROMs, and my second was a D13- with JS ROMS. The first was $399 and as
reliable as a Lada. The second was $99 and probably still works.

Don't forget that Sinclair would have recycled many of the cases and
motherboards - so the serial number does not necessarily indicate an
early version motherboard.
