Shot in the dark

HI peeps

Bit of a long #### his one.  I recently aquired free of charge an LS120 drive.  They are #### hot.  As you may or may not be aware they use the ide bus.  Does anyone no of any drivers so I could use the LS120 drive on my powerflyer gold on my miggy.

Cheers

LS120 Drivers come with the PF Gold (for autobooting etc). Check your installer disk and instructions. Failing that, call Power Computing for the latest update.

The internal LS120 can be used with IDEFix97. This will allow you to read PC 1.44 high-density disks but not the Amigas 1.76 format. In addition, the external version of the SuperFloppy will *not* work so avoid these.

Is it not possible to make a dos-driver?

For example:
The following example illustrates a mount file that could be used for a drive, such as a removable media syquestTM cartridge:
FileSyster = L:CrossDOSFileSystem
Device = scsi.device
Unit = 2
Flags = 1
Surfaces = 2
BlocksPerTrack = 34
LowCyl = 0
HighCyl = 2096
Buffers = 5
BufMernType = 1
StackSize = 600
Priority = 5
GlobVec - 1
DosType 0x4D534800

There were drivers for the LS-120 posted on the Yahoo Amithlon mailing list. Doing a search of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/amithlon/ should return some usable drivers.

Thanx for the replies.  I didn't have a driver disk for the drive as i got the drive out of a compaq I got given.

@skippy

would something like u suggest let me read and write 120mb disks and 1.44mb disks?

Had the drive working fine in pc as windows has built in drivers
