Hello, I am a newbie here. So, apologies beforehand.
I am confused, so I have some questions.
I bought the SD FB Floppy Drive Emulator - BLACK CASE, to eventually use with a Roland MC50 Mrk2
Before installation, do I need to run the software with it?
I have NO floppy discs to convert.
If I do need to run the software (I assume yes), what step do I start with in the manual (as I have no floppy disc files)?

Also, I do not have access to an IDE socket as my PC does not have that capability (seems to be viewed as antiquated by modern motherboard makers).
A friend said he has an IDE to USB adapter.
Can I use that?
And one other question.
I have never bought an SD card and have no idea what size I need. Could someone inform me the exact type I need?
Thanks a lot.
Help for a newbie.

The SD cards are so incredibly huge (e.g., 8GB) compared to a 1.44MB 3.5" floppy, what size is irrelevant. I used 8GB, they're cheap.
No files? At minimum create a .hfe on the HxC using CREATE BLANK DISK.
