The latest in the growing number of disc systems for the Spectrum has been launched recently by Timex (Portugal) Ltd.

It offers the use of up to four drives, each of which can access up to 140K; only uses two bytes of Spectrum memory — unused ones in the system variables; has a very versatile filing system; features two, independent, RS232C pons and could, in theory, be used to run CP/M programs. It uses Hitachi 3 in drives and the figures given relate to those, but 5 1/4 and 3 1/2 can also be used. On paper, at least, Timex is on to a winner.
