The disk looks to work normal after I format (without taping the extra whole), I copied some files, read them from disk, deleted.

I was always under the impression that PC disks are impossible to convert with an amiga drive.

If that's the case, you can cover the HD indicator hole with tape and format using Workbench, but doing that can cause issues with the disk later on.
