Some Dreamcast dev hardware questions...

[Mark30001]

There must be some hardcore Dreamcast dev people like me on these boards. I'm on a quest for more knowledge! :)

Since there are different variations of a Sega Dreamcast Development Box (Some that write Katana and others that write Dreamcast with the logo) are there also different variations of a GD-Writer? On the side of my writer, there is written: "GD-R #2 v0.54" Were there other revisions as well?

Also, where there some master GD-Writers that burned game data onto a (Blue) Katana GD-R?

On the Dreamcast dev boxes, where there some that had an ethernet line instead of a modem?


Here's a list of HKT development hardware I came up with for the Sega Dreamcast:

HKT-0120 - Sega Dreamcast/Katana Development Box
HKT-0300 - Sega Katana Sound Box
HKT-0400 - Sega Katana GD-Writer
HKT-0600 - Sega Dreamcast GIGA BYTE DISC RECORDABLE
HKT-0900 - Sega Dreamcast SYSTEM-DISC2

Are there others that fit into here that not many know about, such as an HKT-0200, HKT-0500, HKT-0700, HKT-0800, etc?

Here are some boxes, from ASSEMbler's collection: http://assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2834
What are the checks for HKT-0100, HKT-0110, and HKT-0130 for? Are they different kinds of Development Boxes?



Any info would be greatly appreciated!
