I have a 40 track double sided (360k) Tandon Corp. (IBM standard) 5.25"
disk drive which I want to connect to my A500.  I want to use it to
transfer data between PCs and my machine.

Does anyone have know how to do this ?
If so can you please post a circuit diagram, or something similar explaining
what is required.

Is it possible to have the 5.25" drive piggybacked onto a 3.5" drive ?

Thanks
