« on: November 14, 2010, 09:31:43 PM »
Can somone tell me the best (cheapest) way to connect a basic IDE cd to an amiga 1200.  What to install 3.9 on the hd, however i only have the HxC virtual floppy.  
 
Many thanks

thanks, that was quick.
 
Is the 4-Device Buffered IDE interface for the Amiga what i need?
 
I currently have a 2.5 in hd installed, will this work ok with a standard CD IDE, don't they have different sized cables?

thanks for all the help
 
will get the buffered interface, £14 not that bad given the money i've spent so far on the system,accelerator and virtual floppy.
