FLASH2GUI Network Software
FLASH2GUI is a graphical user interface that fully integrates with Solid State Disks’ SCSIFlash™ and FLOPPYFlash™ emulation drives that use standard, industrial CompactFlash card technology to provide a solid state, drop-in replacement for obsolete electro-mechanical hard, floppy and tape drives.

FLASH2GUI is used for the control and configuration of the SCSIFlash™ and FLOPPYFlash™ emulation drives as well as network backup and restore operations. FLASH2GUI is available for both Microsoft Windows and as a command line interface for Linux.
FLASH2GUI enables the configuration of the SCSIFlash™ and FLOPPYFlash™ firmware to facilitate a perfect host match, eliminating the need for any host hardware or software changes. It also features multiple login levels to prevent unauthorised use and can be used to set the disk capacity from 1Mb to 64GB, set the drive emulation, the drive’s IP address and name remotely as well as write protect and erase a drive’s contents.
FLASH2GUI’s Image Editor facilitates data backup and restore based on a bit-for-bit disk image which can be unpacked, edited, re-packed and restored direct the SCSIFlash™ and FLOPPYFlash™ drive. It also enables the creation of a new formatted drive and the addition of new software install files to run from the drive.
