buddy, with the 6128 we can use a simple *edge* 5.25 cable to hook it up.... we will need a +12 and +5v power source and it will work away as it should =)
We can also build a small adapter, so when you get a BBC Micro we can hook it upto that as well!
To be honest though - out best bet would be to hook up a 5.25" drive to a PC and then use Omni Flop to copy the images in and then stick whats worth what in the CPCwiki Archives and again using OmniFlop copy image data to 3.5" disk drives - these are easier to hookup and use in general.
