Does anyone know if the A3000 is compatible with the old 5.25" drives
that C= used to make, I thinkthey were 1020's.

I don't know what the model number is, but I bought a used 5.25" external
Commodore drive from an Amiga dealer, plugged it into the back of my 3000,
and it works fine (with CrossDOS as well).  No diskchange sensing, but
life isn't perfect :-)
