Does anyone knows how to connect (and what's required) a removable SyQuest (44MB) drive to an Amiga 500 w/ WB 1.3? The Syquest has the typical SCSII cable connected to an old IIci Mac. Presently, I have a Supra Ram 500RX w/ 2MB or RAM connected to the Amiga expansion side port. Thanks for any help.. Hector <via nothing…>

You need a SCSI controller in your A500. I have a friend that I help to do this but his controller was in an expansion box he purchased. Otherwise the standard SCSI controller software (at least the ones I used) will see the drive. Under 1.3 I notice that you need to have a cartridge in before powering on the system, after that you can remove it and do a changedisk to recognize the next.
