Received my boards and they look good. See pictures below. I had one small error on the cartridge board - I connect one too many pins to ground. There are only 3 ground pins, and I connected 4 somehow. I had to cut one trace. I have only tested power and fit. The drive did not work when connected, but I didn't insert a USB drive yet. I also haven't flashed as better firmware yet - my plan is to load FlashFloppy. That's up next.
I haven't installed the drive swap chip yet. I want to make sure everything external works first. I figure if I can get it working as a B drive first, then swapping to an A drive will be easy.
