I have noticed there are a few ideas floating around on how to modify a PC floppy drive so that it will work on an amiga computer.
Any thoughts on this and has anyone actually succeeded in achieving this. I acquired an old PC floppy drive today and if I can find out how to have a go at it, I will give it a go. Nothing ventured, nothing gained I reckon, the drive was being thrown out anyway and it cost me zip. I have reasonable soldering skills and have been a tinkerer pretty well most of my life, so I can usually work out how to pull something apart and get it back together without wrecking it.
