i bought me a cyclone in the last days of amiga, to copy my original copy of copy protected Lotus 1. copy that. alas then i gave away the A500 and my A1200 was not compatible with the game, so while i could copy it i could not play it. so i opened the dongle with a crowbar. silly youngness. cope with it.

Yes I have a self-made cyclone around here somewhere!
It is just the connectors, wires and some cardboard and sellotape The proper diy bodge-job

The are 2 versions of the cyclone adaptor, one like the layout up, that was the first revision of it and the second had indeed a chip in it, but so far I can see it is a kind of prom chip which you can program yourself...

I doubt the chip has any other function than the ability to leave the hardware attached permanently... I had it between my cpu and drive for years after my last backup endevour
