To all you hardware wizards out there......

My A500 now no longer accepts external floppy drives.  When I put a disk
into my external drive, the disk always appears as bad, and it appears
that the head doesn't move.  Also, I tried hooking up my friend's MAST
twindrive (at first I thought it was my drive) and df1: doesn't appear at
all, and df2: acts like my external drive.  Any suggestions?  Is there
any way I can mix it myself?

Thanks.....
