Accessing FFS disks from Windows/Mac
« on: April 01, 2012, 01:10:40 PM »
Hello Good Amiga Folks!

I'm having a big big spring clean, which means that the monstrosity (but much loved) A1200T will have to go.  However, the ancient 4GB HDD in there has a lot of precious stuff that I want to keep.

My question is, if I put the drive into an external USB caddy, will I be able to get to the partitions?  My only machine is a MacBook with both OS X 10.6 and Win 7,  So any solutions that Linux or AROS won't be much help to me I'm afraid.

I could have sworn there was something about WinUAE being able to read Amiga drives years back, but I've come up empty with a couple of searches and I don't really have time to devote to scouring the web for the info.  I can't stress enough just how much junk there is to go through :(

Thanks,

Andy

So it should work
