Hi. Is there somehting that needs to be done or set for a PC or 880K floppy drive to be used in an A4000T ? The only jumper in the disks module works the same as in the A4000D, setting DF1 to 880k when ON or HD/none when OFF. I've tried with 2 880k drives and it didn't work. Then even took off my PC's floppy drive, wich I know is working, same result, light flashes when boot screen appears trying to boot but then if I insert a disk, nothing.
However the Chinon HD floppy drive from my A4000D works!


A 880kB Amiga floppy drive (ie one from a butchered external drive) will normally work out of the box. Just plug it in (on a straight, untwisted cable).

Using two drives is a bit more tricky, read the thread already mentioned above.
