Mac scsi floppy drive usefull on Amigas?
« on: July 07, 2010, 04:52:49 AM »
I found a 2 US$ Mac G3 floppy drive, with a proper adapter, Can I use it on my BlizzardPPC scsi and make something, somehow usefull of it on an Amiga? Could someone please elaborate.


Thanks in advance.

I found it on a local online auction site. The seller says he retrieved it from a G3.

Here is a picture of it.

I am sorry, but that is the only picture posted. :(

Anyway, assuming the drive is scsi, as the sellers says, can it be used under AmigaOS somehow?

I have also seen SUN and SGI scsi floppy drives, so I was wondering if I could make some use of them.

Thanks for the advice, I know squat about Macs. So I will stay away from that floppy, as it is seems it is not scsi.
