2 internal floppyDrives in A500?

Hi,

I repaired an old internal floppy-drive of mine, works 100%. Problem now is what to do with it? cause there is already a working floppy in my a500.
So, is it possible to connect two internal floppies in an A500? special cables etc.., or, is it possible to rebuilt an internal floppy-drive into an external drive?

cheers

I'd keep it as a spare - you never know if your A500s drive might fail in the future.

Making a second internal floppy into an A500 is basically the same as making an external drive for an A500.. You need a few components. Check aminet doc/hard
