Will these work in unison or will I hafta get a different controller?
I tried (only have a 50 pin cable which hooks directly to the drive
and the pins on the 2090A board.. don't have it set up to use
the Centronics-Printer style connector) connecting it up and PREPing
it on my system (A2000 + A2090A on AmigaDOS 1.3) but it gave me
that useless message "Drive not PREPPED".

I bought this drive intending to connect it to a different system,
just couldn't pass up the price (600 megs, $1199) being offered.
And thought that until I got this other system, it mightas well get
hooked up to something to make sure the drive *works*.
