Finishing things up for
#PicoIDE
and it just about saturates the IDE bus in MWDMA mode 2. Iโm pretty happy with this! It tests as fast as a 74x CD-rom drive which means thereโs a bit more headroom in that mode but that could be the CPU on this K6-2 system being a bottleneck.

I'm not 100% sure when the video will be out, but I managed to collect some latency data for the NSO Gamecube controller. I need to start collecting more samples. Up until now, I was collecting around 2000 samples, but with this controller I captured 5000.
