Amstrad PCW 8512 8256 Floppy Disk Drive Emulator Gotek USB complete fitting kit. This product includes the 34 > 26 pin adaptor, the Gotek floppy emulator drive, OLED display and front faceplate (we do sell them all separately too if needed).

Adaptor and complete fitting kit for swapping your internal floppy drive with a Gotek floppy disk usb emulator drive in your Amstrad PCW8256 or PCW8512 word-processor computer.

The faceplate/bracket part is 3d printed, so has a few rough edges but as you can see in the photos, they look very good and are a very secure and non-destructive way to mount your Gotek drive. No mods, cuts or alterations to your Amstrad casing are needed. Comes in black recyclable PLA plastic.

Allows easy insert of USB stick (not included) and nice placement of the Gotek buttons making it easy to press them and also see the display.

The design of the bracket is not the normal one found online but our own stronger custom design. It's the best one available for your PCW.

This should fit well but some slight careful sanding or filing may be needed due to slight variations in printing or old Amstrad cases warping/cases being screwed together slightly tighter/differently etc.

Important Notes:

This does not fit Amstrad CPC or PCW9xxx computers, it only fits PCW8xxx style Amstrads. Please see our other products for the Amstrad CPC brackets and accessories.

DON'T JUST POWER UP THE GOTEK ONCE MOUNTED IN YOUR COMPUTER, OR YOU MAY BREAK YOUR GOTEK DRIVE, MAKE SURE TO MODIFY AND HAVE THE RIGHT RIBBON CABLE AND POWER LEAD READY FIRST. THE INTERNAL PCW POWER AND DATA RIBBON WILL PLUG AND PLAY EXCEPT YOU MUST SWAP THE 5v and 12v POWER PINS, THE GOTEK IS 5v ONLY SO MUST NOT BE POWERED WITH THE 12v WIRE.

This product is for the Amstrad PCW8xxx Gotek internal floppy emulator kit and bracket, we also sell other Amstrad and Sinclair brackets etc as well Amiga A500, A600 and A1200. Please make sure to buy the correct items for your system (photos may show a different model).
