One caveat for your particular area of interest: Of course the writes still race seek operations, the writes are occasionally very slow, and you are going to possibly still have...

Okay, let me do an answer to minor points, and I'll follow up with what I think are the biggest up-front decisions to be made. 1. **Aggressive writes:** You may...

The big decisions to be made. 1. **Buffer cache or ring**: I think this the Big One. It informs the whole shape of development really. So my view was that...

**SWD:** Ah that's a shame. I haven't played with SWD except for programming, so I can't authoritatively say what could be going wrong in setting up SWD. I'm pretty sure...

Okay that all sounds good. To be honest you're obviously fine to crack on and ask questions if you need to. If there are any areas you'd specifically like me...

That's great! Maybe you can do a broader reset of the rings when switching to DA, to get into non async mode? On exit from DA we always fully remount...

The entry to DA mode is pretty shoddy really, tucked away in `image.c`. The aim originally (like, day one of FlashFloppy) iirc was that it would be possible to seamlessly...

It can be a bit fussy. I will add the jumper settings to the "Running The Testbed" wiki page, where they properly belong. I will also give it a whirl...

Well, I remember why I don't run it as often as I should, I always find it a pain to set up. The TestBed and DUT can backpower each other...

I've revamped the wiki page https://github.com/keirf/FF_TestBed/wiki/Running-The-TestBed Please let me know if you think anything is still unclear.
