If anyone knows how to slow down the amiga external disk drive I would like to know how. I have taken it apart and adjusted everything that I thought might do so but no luck so far. I have the MIRROR and can check write speed but need to know how to adjust. Please leave me a message if you know. Thanks 72017,155

The speed control pot is located on the underside of the PC board near the eject button.

Danny… "adjusting everything" is not exactly the way to go about it. There is a diagram in the Mirror manual that shows where the adjustment is. Regards, Larry.

Danny, Adjusting "everything" is really not a good idea..those adjustments are there for a reason…and changing them can change things you didn't intend to change. As Larry said, look in the manual for the proper pot…it is tiny. Don
