He offers everything from the $15 bare board up. Next step up is doing
the surface mount chips for you at $3.50, etc.
I'd do the bare board. I can attest that the mfm emulator will work.
I've not one the SA-1000 might have to work with him to do it
yourself. I recall he offered a kit option on that, and I had him
build it up.
thanks

It's a bit very expensive to shipping a SA-1000 from U.S. to Italy....
almost over than 200 USD

Any suggestion?
I believe Dave G's MFM emulator has an option to support the SA1000.
I have one in stock for a future project to try to extract data from
SA-1000's in DSD floppy / 8" drive subsystems.
https://www.pdp8.net/mfm/mfm.shtml
info is there about the SA-1000.
If you are having problems because the drives are dead, this won't
help. It will inhale the contents and with
luck you can extract data.
I know with the ST-506 configuration of his hardware, you can then use
the emulator to replace the SA-1000.
If you need to recover the data, you may be out of luck, but if you need
a "working" SA-1000 and can format
it from utilities, then this may help.
