 Subject: CAN AN INTERNAL 3.5 SCSI REPLACE THE FLOPPY?
Author: Donovan (199.243.195.34)

Dear follow Atari nerds/geeks/genuises/gurus,

I am upgrading my Atari Falcon 030 and had a devilish idea of installing an internal SCSI II card reader in place of my 3.5" floppy drive. I know the Falcon does not have an interal SCSI II port, but I was going to use an external adaptor to snake a ribbon cable over-and-under the lid of the case back inside the machine.

Does anyone see why this would NOT work? Here is a picture of the drive I'm considering.

I know I'd loose my floppy forever, but with everything being available online anyways, who needs the floppy anymore? I've never seen anyone doing this before, let me know if it'll work!!!
