HD floppy disks on Amiga 500

@rockape:

This guy was asking about using DD-formatted PC-disks in an Amiga. He was not asking how to use a PC disk drive in an Amiga.

We know... and this is exactly what rockape is talking about...

Err, this also has been said before. Is somebody reading this thread or are you just looking at the subject before posting?

Hmmmm.... reading the thread... good suggestion...

Anyways, no offence intended or anything like that, but eh, you could perhaps read the thread before posting yourself?

And back to topic: You might find DD disks on eBay or some amiga-ish webshops, but for games... just use HD disks formatted as DD. It should work for a while, and if the disk fails, just write a new one from the .adf

Nope he wasn't. After my post, he edited his thread though and removed the copy&paste stuff about "soldering and jumpering pc-diskdrives to get them working in Amigas".

In that case, please accept my humble apologies.
