- I eventually mounted my Quantum Pro 210 in the A4000, on the GVP
- Series II card, and it works okay. A bit noisier than it was
- though. The advice from the previous poster about backing it up
- and reformatting in the new position, might be one I follow
- through. Although the thought of all those floppies is just too
- much like a headache. Better than losing data though. And I get
- to use Amiback in anger too.
