[comp.sys.amiga.hardware] MS/DOS Harddisk on A-1000. Possible ?

ml@ktibv.uucp (Marinko Laban) (02/01/91)

Hello, World!

This might be an old question, but I've been out of the Amiga world for a few
years now. This is what I need to know:

I have an old ('86) A-1000 with 2 floppies. I am able to get access to several
harddisk that came off of some crashed PC's and now I'm wondering if it is
possible to use those things on my Amiga.

Currently, I have a Seagate ST-125 and a NEC ??? with controllers. Could someone
answer the following questions ?

1. Is it possible ?
2. What extra hardware/software do I need, if it is possible ?
3. What hard-wiring must be done inside the Amiga ?
4. anything else I should know ...

Thanks for answering in advance !
