Line 7:
'''Commodore 64 disk/tape emulation and data transfer''' comprises hardware and software for Commodore 64 disk & tape emulation and for data transfer between either [[Commodore 64]] (C64), Commodore ([[Commodore 1541|1541]]) disk drive or Commodore ([[Commodore 1530|1530 Datasette]]) tape deck and newer computers.
 
There are a large variety of adapters for C64 disk/tape emulation and data transfer, and an even larger variety of compatible software. Many of the adapters interface with the original ''[[Commodore bus|serial bus]]'' disk drive plug or the ''[[Commodore Datasette|C2N]]'' tape. Others connect to either the ''user port'' or the cartridge ''expansion port'' using either standardized [[RS232]] interfaces or proprietary adapters. In combination with software (or firmware), the adapters can either fully support the original communication protocols, provide partial support or apply proprietary communication protocols. Different solutions allow for letting the C64 access programs stored on another computer or the [[Internet]], and for accessing the C64 disk station and tape deck from other computers.
