I may try and find an old MFM HDD - I work in computers so its not that unthinkable that some of my contacts my have the odd one lying around. There is a CD drive and controller in already so if I can get that working great.

You should keep in mind that once you got an MFM- or RLL-HD, you still need sofware to operate it.

I had a selfmade HD solution for my A500 ('ct-interface offering one PC/XT slot, where I plugged in an OMTI RLL controller with two 65mB-RLL-HDs connected to it) and I used "BOIL3" software to operate it.

If you dont have such software, you might feel the need to write me an PM, as I don't think you still can get it somewhere nowadays...



All the best,
