 Plus/4 Expansion Port

Most hard drives for the 64/128 plug into the CARTRIDGE port, at least here in the States.... and that's a 44 pin connector. The Plus/4 and 16 use a 50 pin cartridge connector.

And although Commodore claimed when the Plus/4 came out that the USER port is the same as the 64, there are a couple of pins that have to be swapped if you want the Plus/4's ACIA to detect things correctly. (offhand I don't remember which pins these are, sorry)

 C64 Expansion Devices Compatible with +4?

Anyone know anything about the compatibility of the expansion port on the +4 and the C64?

I'm just curious about things like the SuperCPU and the IDE Hard Drive interface that has recently been designed for the C64.

I've been toying with a Database program for the +4, and a HD with faster disk access would really make something like that really useful!

Just wondering...
