Sold 5 1/4" Floppy drive

[PRS]

Dear reader,

I have an 5 1/4" floppydisk expansion for sale.

It has been tested on the Amiga 500 Plus, which is also on sale here.



I'm asking € 30,- plus shipping costs. Payment by paypal as gift or IBAN. Shipping to EU/UK by parcel (track and trace) is € 19.50 (euro zone 1) and € 25,- (euro zone 2).

If interested, please, declare here your interest and send me a PM.

Interested. Will this work on a PC as well? Thanks.

It has the normal Amiga external drive connection, so probably won't be usefull on a PC.
It could be that a PC floppy drive is mounted in an external Amiga case, but I have bought this from new and never opened it.

Will this Floppy Drive read PC Disks if Catweasel MK2 Disk Controller is installed in your Amiga? Thanks.

Hi Fondpondforever,

Unfortunately I don't have had the luck to own a Catweasel Disk Controller. I'm unaware of any incompatibilities.

I'm probably not telling anything new, but found this on Vesalia's website regarding the Catweasel:

The Catweasel software is under continuous development since 1996. Here is the current list of supported floppy disk formats (valid for all Catweasels, Amiga and PC alike):

• all PC formats (180K to 1440K)
• Amiga DD and HD formats (incl. 5.25")
• Atari 9, 10 and 11 sector disks
• Macintosh 720K, 800K, 1440K (DD, GCR, HD)
• Commodore 1541/1571/1581
• XTRA high density with 2380 KByte per disk
• Nintendo copy station 1600 KB format
• Atari 8-bit (all MFM formats)
• Apple ][ disks (Apple DOS 3.3 or later)
• more 8-bit formats in development

Sorry, I can't help you more.
