| Wow!
I never knew they even existed!!! Being an Amiga drive.... I wonder if it could read GCR stuff.... or if the drive will ONLY read MFM....MMmmm... expensive though... but very rare.

WOW very rare indeed. What your looking at is a drive that was really sold/used in the days of the a1000.
You should beable to find support so you can read your plus4 floopys from workbench. I did see something once that runs under Opus Megellan 2 and at the time I thought that would be nice because you could pop in a floopy and away you go 
There is no real need for it on an amiga, but as a fun thing and to use with your old floopys then it would be cool to have.

| I do not own an Amiga
so it's of no use to me. However if a certain bouncing-ball-Amiga user (ahem ahem LANDO cough ahem) needed it, Santa James might just be able to see what he could do.
