1) I only have positive experience with Amigakit
2) HD disks with covered hole formatted as DD used to be commonly used
3) some drives can have problems with some floppies

ad 3) back in 90s me and my schoolmate bought both brand new A600s. His Amiga had English keyboard, mine has German layout. Not sure with kickstart etc. His Amiga read all the floppies he inserted, my Amiga refused to boot from some of his floppies (exact the same physical floppies) resulting Software Failure guru screen. Both these Amigas were new, all the floppies were DD.
