Does anyone have any experience with an external 3.25" drive for the A500 made by a company called Lerner? A dealer that I contacted recommended that over both the 1010 and the ProDrive, but I have never heard of the Lerner drive before.

Stephen, I have no experience with that drive…so can't say anything specific, but you said it was a 3.25" drive…was that a mis-type? The Amiga uses 3.5" drives, not 3.25" drives. I just wanted to make sure because there are such things as 3.25" drives, and they probably could be adapted to the Amiga but you wouldn't be able to use them for much since 3.25" disks are hard to find…and of course no program disks would fit (commercial software).

Sorry, Don. I meant 3.5" drive.
