Optical drive simulator for Dreamcast

The V5.15B board replaces the original GD-ROM drive in a SEGA Dreamcast console. It loads game images from an SD card through a GDEMU-compatible interface. An integrated heat sink helps keep the PCB cool during long sessions. The unit is supplied new and ready to install.

For owners keeping original hardware alive

Collectors who want to preserve their laser assembly and reduce load times will benefit. Builders looking for an HDMI output solution or a multi-console flash cartridge should look elsewhere, as this board only handles optical-drive emulation for the Dreamcast.

Questions about this item

Will the V5.15B board fit inside my original Dreamcast case alongside the existing power supply?

The V5.15B board is designed to replace the optical drive, so it occupies the drive bay rather than sitting beside the power supply; the included heat sink fits within the standard chassis space.

How can I confirm the V5.15B simulation board is functioning correctly after installation?

Power on the Dreamcast; the GDEMU menu should appear on screen without a disc inserted, allowing you to select and launch game images from the SD card.
