The easiest way it to put your harddrive form the amiga in your PC and mount it with UAE.

Then download TSGUI http://aminet.net/package.php?package=disk/misc/tsgui.lha

You can use TSGUI to get the ADFs extracted to disk :)

I used http://aminet.net/package/disk/misc/TransADF back when all I had was an A500+ with 2MB of RAM and 2 floppy drives, along with a null modem cable and a terminal program.


He can buy the amiga explorer and transfer files trough null cable also :)

But the easiet way is what I wrote above, just boot your Amiga harddrive in UAE and put TSGUI on it and the adf files you want then just run TSGUI on your real amiga and put the ADF files to disks :)

Easy as pie!

How do you use your HD on your PC and mount with UAE, I have a sd card but my windows wants to format it not read it. I have been trying to transfer files to my amiga for some time, I need the drivers to my TBC IV card but can only find the drivers on line and have no way into my A2000.


As Karlos said, put the HDD in your computer, makse sure you no not try to boot your computer from that harddrive ;)

DO NOT format it in windows, just ignore what it says, start UAE click the harddrive tab, add that harddrive it will be named the same as it's model number, Then do not forget to click Read/Write and use UAE as HD controller.

Here is a screenshot how it looks in winUAE, tho im using a CF card.

Accessing an old SCSI drive in UAE on a modern PC isn't exactly easy, especially if you don't have a SCSI card for your PC lying around (I'd bet most people don't.)

As for Amiga Explorer, why pay for something you can do for free?  Though Amiga Explorer would probably be alot simpler for most than getting an old SCSI drive running in a PC, or transferring files with ZModem.


First off he have not stated wheter he has a SCSI or IDE controller.
Also most people I know has SCSI controller lying around at home.

Secondly Amiga Explorer is easy for everyone to use and it's quite cheep.
