Is it possible to record ADF to FDD on the A600GS?
« on: January 07, 2026, 04:15:22 PM »
Hello. Can I record ADF data to the FDD on the A600GS so that the original Amiga can read it?

Could you by any chance tell me how it works? Honestly, I got the A600GS by chance and it piqued my interest. Before that, I only had an A500 mini. I'm considering buying an original and am looking for one in good condition for my collection, and I don't plan on tinkering with its internals.
I also play Amiga games on the Evercade VS-R

Thanks, I'll check it out, maybe I'll even order one from eBay with a floppy disk. But for now, I'm thinking of trying the old computer option.

It's a shame something like the A600GS can't do this out of the box. It would be nice to at least have a ribbon cable connector.

Indeed, be a nightmare to integrate GW to GS. Then you would have to mess around with placing floppy connector and power. It would just look ugly.

It would be perfectly fine to make a 3D-printed stand to package all this nicely. It would make a relatively compact box.

I'm also already thinking about the A1200NG. I'll build it in an A1200Net case.

But we'll see what Retro Games comes up with.
