A local electronics store is selling 3.5 IBM compatible floppy drives (cheap!)
that seem to have the same connectors as the Amiga internal drive. What are
the
chances that this drive will work in an Amiga? 
A friend has a broken drive in his 1000 and I am considering trying to 
hack together another external drive...

                                thanks in advance
                                         steve collins
