386 Build: 3 Floppy Drives, SD card, Networking

This is the final part of my 386 machine build series.

Sadly, the 386SX mainboard died after briefly coming back to life in the last video.

I went hunting for a new one and found a gem of a 386DX40 mainboard. Its BIOS supports 4 floppy drives, but for reasons I only had space for three. But how often have you seen more than two floppy drives on a DOS computer?

I'm also adding a network adapter so I can go online with this machine.

All the hardware I am using gets a major refurbishment and cleaning before using. This results in a very pleasing to look at computer in a relatively small case.

I'm really happy with the outcome of this and I hope you enjoy it, too!
