Atari 810 (original) (raw)

The Atari 810 is the official floppy disk drive for the Atari 400 and 800, the first two models in the Atari 8-bit family of home computers. It was released by Atari, Inc. in 1980. The single-density drive provides 90 kB of storage. The 810 has a data transfer rate of 6 kbps in most cases and a number of reliability issues. Third-party enhancements such as the Happy 810 address these problems as do replacement drives like the Indus GT with more storage and other features.
