How use an IDE HDD with AVR?

Download the manufacturers datasheet. Then connect it to the AVR according to the datasheet. Then have the timing of the signals according to the datasheet. Then have a look at the command set. Now arrange the commands to format the disk, read and write to it. Yes, a filesystem ... perhaps FAT16 with 65536 allocation units, each at least one sector.

Serious error. All shortcuts have disappeared. Screen. Mind. Both are blank.

Besides the most excellent answers you receive here, you might want to try the computer storage group as well.

comp.sys.ibm.pc.hardware.storage

Good luck.

You'll have to gather some information. Google for "ATA" to find the interface information you need. Google for "Commodore 64" and "hard disk" or HDD to find at least one example. No need to say you need the datasheet of your AVR as well.

You may want to take a look of the YAMPP schematics and sources:
