For Sale Gotek Floppy Drive External ROUND cables

[Xanxi]

Hi.
Can that cable be used with a real floppy drive instead of Gotek?
In that case, what would be the setting of the drive (DS0? DS1?)?
If it works that way, i would be interested in one.
Thanks A.mi.goun.

Declaring Interest 2x Light-beige cable (16,50 €) pending PM

I am interested in the double cable and the bootselector for my Amiga 500. Can the cable really power two external drives at the same time? Mechanical drive and Gotek drive. Is it powered by Disk Drive only?

Thanks for help.

Cables are only for Goteks, not mechanical drives. Dual cable can power 2 Gotek drives easily.

Ah ok great, so I could use the internal mechanical and two goteks externally. Hmm how I know from which Gotek the Amiga will boot? Because the boot selector will only switch between internal or external drive.

ok good, it answers my question and unfortunately that is not for me then.

That would work well, Amiga will then boot from the first external drive - DF1.

Hello, since most of the boot selectors for A500 switch df0 <-> df1 is it possible to make a Dual External Cable with one end connecting to a Gotek drive (df1) and the other end having a female connector for connection of a traditional external floppy drive (df2)? What would be the cost for such a cable?

Edit: Forgot to write that the connection to the Amiga will be with a 23pin connector.

So you want to have at the same time - DF0 (internal Gotek or regular FDD) and external DF1 (Gotek) + DF2 (external regular FDD?

Yes, exactly.

The external floppy drive you have does not have a passthru connector?

 

[amakis]

It does,but I want to keep it in it's original condition. Also my boot selector is a df0<->df1 type and I have installed both the Amiga and the drives inside a selve so removing the cables each time I switch drives is very frustrating. That's why I need to have the gotek as df1 and the floppy as df2. The only solution that I can think of is to have a dual cable with bot a gotek connection and a female 23 pin connecor acting as a pass-through.

 

[a.mi.goun]

Ok understand. I think I can make the the cable and hardwire gotek for df1 and the drive for df2.
I still work on the previous requests but when done I will contact you with details.
