A600 strange floppy drive issue
« on: July 11, 2011, 08:58:31 AM »
Hello,

I recently bought a new Floppy Drive from Vesalia.de for my A600 and it has a rather strange issue.

The drive works perfectly. It reads many floppy's my old drive would not read at all.
However, the Amiga's floppy drive LED is lit permanently - even when the drive is not in use.

Normally this only happens when you put the cable in wrong side around, but then the drive just won't work so that can't be it.

I'm a bit stumped, can this do harm and is there a way to fix it?

Thanks for the answer!
I'll try mailing them as well, I just figured it may have been a standard problem ;)

I'll also try the floppy in a different machine.

Still strange that it works except for the led though!
