IIRC,  Amiga HD floppys are supposed to have 2x lower RPM (150 instead of 300)
Better sorry than worry.

just one more thing,
pasha said Amiga uses custom/special FDDs, but thats not true at least not for DD drives. Amiga uses 'Shugart standard' and most other computers have used it too (like ZX Spectrum +3, Acorn). its IBM PC that uses 'special drives'.
Better sorry than worry.
