- Enclosed are two text files concerning connecting a non-Atari 3.5"
- disk drive to an ST. One, SGL2DBL.TXT, was written by me for the Michigan
- Atari Magazine, and concerns an upgrade of sorts -- how to connect the drive
- if you've got an Atari single-sided drive to gut. (Or, looked at another way,
- how to replace the single-sided mechanism with the double-sided one.) The
- other, GENERIC.TXT, I pulled off of the Treasure Chest BBS (313)973-9137. It
- contains instructions relating to adding a non-Atari drive from scratch.
-
- Note that I do not guarantee you can get either procedure to work for
- you; there are just too many variables, including the type of drive you use,
- differences between your setup and mine, and mechanical aptitude. That said,
- it shouldn't be too difficult to hook up an non-Atari drive to your ST, if you
- don't rush things and pay attention to the instructions. Good luck!
