Cables & Adaptors:
XE1541 Cable (with diode protection): - For users who need the basic cable to get started, the XE1541 is a good choice as it works with most PCs. The XE1541 connects the PC and Commodore hardware together.

You can also use the same cable with dedicated disk backup software such as StarCommander to bulk-backup your disk collection into PC format quickly.

The cable connects the LPT port on the PC and the Commodore Serial Bus and can be used on C64, C128, Vic20, Plus4 and C16.

The 64HDD price is cheaper than you will find on US eBay, plus you can customise the length! The cable is 100% tested with 64HDD and is capable of standard and fast transfer speeds.

Price: US$22

plus US$4.50 postage

(1metre cable included, US$3.50/m for extra length)

Pwr-Interceptor: - For users who have an X-cable, this interface allows you to upgrade it to feature Pwr-Load support.

The interface installs between the LPT and X-cable on the PC side and attaches to the userport of your C64 (can also be used for C128 and Vic20, Plus4 (needs adaptor)). The design enables you to still use your X-cable with your favourite copying utility.
