A500 FDD in A1200?
« on: June 08, 2004, 10:17:30 AM »
Does it fit or is it bigger? My A1200's FDD is dead and I was thinking if I can find one from a A500 and use that instead without cutting the case...

Greetings,
 Yup, definitly bigger, but it works. BTW just curious, how did it died?


Well, the Amiga was an AT A1200. AT used modified PC FDDs with a slight modification in the A1200 mobo. This floppy was crap and I couldn't play most of the games I love. Therefore, I decided to modify the mobo and the floppy. I couldn't do the floppy modification since it was kinda hard for me so I gave it to a friend. He failed to do it properly. Anyway, the mobo was modified ok by me and I only need a floppy. I can buy a new for 30EUR, but still, I can find a second hand A1200 with that....
