The USB disk drive I bought can only read and write to PC FAT disks. Both a modern PC and my iMac can write to such a disk, but only a HFS disk can be used in the SE30. Getting the…

The Amiga emulates 68k macs exceptionally well. The hardware emulator for your A2000 is a great solution, however it is not actually required... Look at my sig to see my A1200 ru…

What's up with Iowa lately? Another huge haul just waiting for someone... This one may not be too far away, though...I'm trying to find out. I'd like to have the 575s. Don't re…

Excellent score on that Sun Box! Quick look over there! /grabs sun box and runs

I just tried HFVExplorer on a PC and it seems to be able to save readable files to a HFS formated disk in the USB floppy. I will have to try the disks in the SE 30 (on Friday when …

The USB disk drive I bought can only read and write to PC FAT disks. Click to expand... Weird. I've never heard of this before. Your USB drive should be able to read/write HFS …

Yep, they most certainly are. Here is an article explaining the differences between auto-inject and manual-inject FDDs.

Those are auto-inject?

Some have decided to put the HD into the System Saver on top of the IIgs. This way they can turn the HD on first. Sometimes you need to do this as the drives age they may need a fe…

You can never have to many working superdrives, they also seem harder to find. I have a few spare auto inject and manual inject (at least I think I still have some autos). I like …

The old kind, that is. :beige: Bought two of 'em on eBay the other day. Will come in handy - I don't have any spare auto-inject FDDs, only manual-inject.

Great. I always use an imation USB superdrive for this task. Of course Rollie44 will connect the USB floppy drive to the iMac :lol:

Amiga hardware at that point was played out, we are better off with modular components instead of a few chips that run everything that cannot be changed without something breaking…

That mac emulator must be pretty interesting. Its a shame the Amiga flopped so quickly, and its assets are left rotting. If only Apple bought what was left of old Commodore.

I have a year-old iMac. The SE30 has "LocalTalk". Click to expand... I'm really confused. If you have a year old iMac, why not just use the USB disk drive to make an HFS format…

That's always fun stuff to find. For some reason It feels good to have something that aged out years ago.

To produce a Mac usable floppy disk on a PC follow the instructions given in our 68kMLA Wiki -> HFVExplorer. Click to expand... The online manual includes advice how to …

I don't have "PC Exchange". If the SE30 can't read a PC FAT formatted disk with the Iomega driver I'm still in a pinch. Making a HFS disk on a PC doesn't help either if I can't cop…

Hi guys, Today I managed to win an auction for a Commodore Amiga 2000 from a local seller. The seller was great (and may be a source of more vintage gear in the future!), but not…

Nice score. Yeah, Verbatim is now owned by Mitsubishi Chemical Holdings Corporation (according to wiki) and have actually been owned by Mitsu since 1990.

Nice! 800k floppies are always nice to have. My only source of them are wiping old ones I have laying around here. BTW, did you get my PM regarding payment for shipping?

I stopped in a Goodwill computer store today to check out what they had. The prices were good on some items, OK on others. However, one display that I was drawn to was NOS floppy d…

Nice, I did not know they made also a combo drive. But as far as I remember I used several sorts of drivers with my PB180 and a SCSI ZIP 100 (probably with help of SCSI probe or HD…
