I've recently been able to obtain (at an extreme discount $20) an OLD Syquest removable drive (I think it is 5 meg / cart.), and would like to just play around with it (I know, access time and storage suck, but just for fun). I found out that the drive was used with an IBM, and apparently requires the ST-506 interface. Wanted to know if there had been any hardware-hacks available for an A-500 to ST-506, or even some commercial solutions. Thanx for the help, Larry Kelly (lkelly@dtoa1.dt.navy.mil) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ /\\ Larry Kelly ] [ /--\\ osrad: KELOSR1 ] [ / \\// miga...The ONLY Computer - Internet: lkelly@dtoa1.dt.navy.mil ]
