I know it was a little while back, but did you get this to work? I found your post while checking to see if I could hook up a 1571 drive to an A3000. My intention is to use an Apple iie emulator to read a number of his 5.25 disks files and transfer them to the a3000 hard drive. I would then be able to view the many, many documents his wife typed in over the years and put them into a usable format or print for him.
Thanks,
