Internal Gotek and external real floppy

Post by janos.suranyi »

Hi
I'm using an internal gotek drive in an Amiga 500. It works perfectly. However when I plug my externel real floppy disk it just doesn't work as expected.
The system recognises the drive but no disk can be read. In the workbench when I insert a disk, a dialog such as "Error vaidating disk - Disk is unreadable".
However when I switch gotek back to real internal drive it works perfectly.

Does anybody can use gotek AND an external real drive in an Amiga 500 ?

Thanks and regards,
Janos

Hello,

Yes. It is a metal case external floppy disk drive with cable plugged to the amiga external floppy port.
