Making External diskdrive into df0 for A600

[amiga1260]

After reading about Indivision ECS topic the internal diskdrive of the A600 has to go.

Is it possible to make a external disdrive into DF0?

Or are there any other solutions without to lose the floppy drive by replacing a slimline diskdrive for example?

The answer is in the thread:

Simple thing: Swap the Sel0 and Sel1 lines, pure wiring, no (additional) electronics required.

I think I read over it.

tutorial?

I also want to have a tutorial about it.

I also find another solution. Years ago Elbox had made some A600 towers, the you don't have to get rid of the diskdrive.

As I recall, I don't think it's as simple as connecting your DF0: drive to the external port (with the appropriate cable made up) because the drive select 0 line _SEL0 is only present on the internal floppy connector, not the external one.  Therefore you'd need to perform a couple of PCB level modifications if you wanted to make it work.

Refer to this  A600 schematic and you'll see what I mean.

Okay, Castellen. I have look at the schematics. It isn't simple to rewire it.

Maybe I goning to built a stand and put it under the A600 and put the diskdrive under the A600 like the KCS A600 PowerPC board.
