Epson SMD-340 HD floppy
« on: September 29, 2008, 05:24:05 PM »
 Does anyone used an Epson SMD340 drive on the Amiga? It appears to be a HD Amiga floppy.

 If not, I will transform it in a regular 880kb drive, what could be a shame on those nice 1.76Mb drives.
Goodbye people.

I\'ll pop on from time to time, RL is acting up.

 A helpful guy from EAB point me the right direction.

 Thanks for no-one here. Period.

 Thanks, Weird.

 The drives are different. Tomorrow I'll convert the unit to Amiga standard and test it.

 Sorry for the hard words, people.

 Only as an ordinary DD drive. The motor wheel is not heavy enough to rotate in 150 RPM "smoothly".:-(

 Sigh... Back to the never-ending search for a FZ357...
