Here is the manual for the SFRM72-FU (original) model.
Jumper settings (JP-D) are shown for those people who for some reason changed them from default.

http://iw.suntekstore.com/images_cache/ ... 019784.pdfNote that the two buttons are not labelled on the units. The left button is 10's when no USB is inserted, and OUT when USB is inserted.
The right button is 1's when no USB is inserted, and IN when USB is inserted. At first this confused me for a hot minute, so be aware...
IN = load from USB to built-in memory
OUT = save from built-in memory to USB
Some of my MPC60 'floppies' contain more than 720kb of data, so after loading these from a CF reader, they could not be saved to the Gotek's internal memory due to a lack of space. Why? Because the MPC60 formats floppies up to 793kb, but the Gotek internal memory has a maximum capacity of 720kb (Dos). Be aware of this if planning to back up existing data stored on floppies!!!
According to the manual, you can store more than 720kb within each of the 99/999 folders which have an unlimited capacity, and can be searched...so I guess in theory you could have 1 folder on your USB with loads of individual samples and sequences within it. But you'll find that it's usually more convenient to have 1 program/sequence per folder, just make sure total data in each of the 99/999 folders doesnt exceed 720kb.
Also the autoload is just beyond cool...yes, autoload a .pgm on an MPC60 without using SCSI devices or a USB drive. The built-in memory retains its data on power down and autoloads the .pgm on power up.
More observations:
The colour is a perfect match for an MPC60
The emulator is approx 20mm shorter than the FDD it replaces
The emulator is significantly lighter in weight than a FDD
The MPC60 'format floppy' command is rendered useless, and the OS may hang if used
Users can easily share files/folders via internet, without conversion software or CF/SCSI
