If I´m not mistaking, the drive has to spin in a specific rpm... Theres a bunch of docs on the disk that explains it... If I remember correctly... :)

From the Catweasel manual:

--------------------------

If you want to use a diskdrive on the Catweasel that is configured to work on the internal Amiga floppy-controller, check the following points:

1. diskchange must be available on pin 34
2. the drive must answer to the "Select 1" signal
3. 5,25" drives must spin at 360 RPM
