Just curious..

As I haven't been involved with Amiga stuff for quite a while, what sort of drive is in my A4000T? It is 'seen' as a DD drive, but what sort is it and how do I:

1) replace it (what sort and where to get)
2) add df1: I thought I could just get the same type of drive and plug it in

I take it the Catweasel is bootable so I can play NDOS floppy games?
Excuse my ignorance but I don't know much about this Catweasel. I also thought it was a Zorro card.

@ vcps: oh, so that's what you mean by 'tried to modify some face plates': you tried to put the A1200 floppy inside?

Okay, so, I ask more specifically now: I want another floppy to act as Df1, and also as a backup in case Df0 fails. What drive can I get that will be bootable? And I want to first try to get a good drive before having to buy "Weasels and Koalas"  :-P
