You cant blame a guy for asking I'm just enjoying it, I know there are people out there who restore classic gear and this is will be the same I'm sure hense the questions as its the legacy software that will be the weak point as time goes by.

Again thank you you have been super helpful.

I'm off to hunt down a storage device I see you can use m.2 to SATA adapters these days even dual m.2 to SATA, these may be easier to source and cheaper in the future.

Cheers
