Subject:Hi-Density Floppy Drive

I have an Amiga 2000 and I am trying to add a high-density floppy
internally. I heard somewhere, probably on this group, that you can use
a Chinon FG-357. I have aquired one and I am having some difficulties. I
set the jumper on the motherboard, 301, to the closed position to
support two drives. I left my original 880k drive as DF0 (DS0) and left
the cable connected as it was, with a twist just before the connection
to the 880k drive. This leaves one floppy power cable open and one open
connector on the floppy cable between the motherboard and the
uninstalled floppy. I have read that I need to manually set the drive
jumpers on the high-density drive to DF1 (DS1) but I am usure how to do
it.

Question 1: Can I use a Chinon FG-357 drive in an Amiga?

Question 2: Does anyone know how to set the jumpers? The reference on
the bottom of the drive is greek to me?

Thanks in advance.
