is there someone who has a project in KEIL connecting a HARDDRIVE to an 8051. I'm not a pro and to programm on my own is an too hard job.
Hope someone can help me.
Hey, you had better be a pro and good programmer as well if u intend to do it by yourselves. I found one link describing how to interface with HDD by 8051, but I lost it now. u may find it by searching "google". u also can find ATAPI and FAT32 document in MCU fileman @ elektroda. In my idea, the coding is more difficult than the hardware implementation for this one, especially in dealing with FAT32.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This code allows browsing of FAT32 formatted IDE hard discs.
The board that it was tested on is the EDTP IDE Interface Board with
Network Connection...
The board consists of a Atmega128 with 1Mbit of SRAM attached. In this code
the external SRAM is not used or required.
This code is developed on ICC AVR, and to enable it to function correctly
I had to adjust the ammount of return stack that is assigned, this is located in
project settings (change to 50 to be safe).

I found this code on the net.. but it's for AVR mega128 and compiler ICCAVR.
the documentation is complete inside the .rar file.
I NEVER TEST THIS CODE YET.. but
maybe it's can be your reference.
