I've had an amiga 500 for 11 weeks now.  The last 7 of which it's been in
the shop for drive problems.  Ever week or so, it comes back supposedly
fixed.  Ever week or so, I take it back to get it fixed.  Now the dealer
I bought it from tells me I need a new drive, but they won't cover it
under the warranty.  No way am I going to buy another garbage drive from
Commodore for $170.00.  Has anyone replaced their internal drive with a
generic 3 1/4 inch drive from say Toshiba or Sony?  Or is there something
special about the drive Commodore uses?
