Line 8:
'''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 is a large variety of adapters for C64 disk/tape emulation and data transfer, and an ever larger variety of compatible software. Many of the adapters are interfacing the original ''serial bus'' disk drive plug or the ''[[C2N]]'' tape interface. Other connects 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 allows 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.

* The ''Prlink'' is a cable designed for the [[#sw_prlink|Prlink]] software by Marko Mäkelä and Olaf Seibert.
; RS232 expansion port adapters: Expansion port cartridges provides a high-speed connection to an external computer and/or the Internet. The output interface is a RS232 interface for connecting to an external computer. Internet connection can be obtained through the external computer or via a series to Internet adapter.<ref>[http://www.armory.com/~spectre/cwi/hl/nm-uds.html Using a UDS-10 (UDS-100) Device Server]</ref> Some adapters also have separate Ethernet interface for connecting to Internet. The most common cartridges for external connection is listed below.<ref>[http://thedailyreviewer.com/hardware/view/cartridge-based-rs232-options-115208258]</ref>
* The ''RR Net'' is an add on to the ''Retro-Replay'' cartridge that allows for broadband Internet access.
