- As my subject says, how difficult is it (if it is, in fact,
- possible) to add one of those spiffy new HD floppies to an A2000?
- Does the 2.04 ROM support them? What drivers would I need?
- Also, what about the drive itself? Is it just a garden-variety
- (that is, PC-style) high density 3.5" drive that one can get from any
- number of sources, or does Commodore have some extra firmware (or
- what have have you) in their HD drive?
- Any help in is greatly appreciated...
