What floppy drive comes in an Amiga 3000?
Does the Amiga 3000 come shipped with an 800K or 1.7mb HS floppy?
Will an HD floppy work in an A3000? |

I believe the 3000 came with a high density drive. Mine did. If you want to add another HD drive as you probably know, you just can't use a off the shelf pc HD drive.

I'm pretty sure it came initially with an 880k DSDD floppy drive

According to Amiga Hardware Database we are both right.

Indeed. Depending on what spec machine it was and when it was bought. The 25MHz ones are most likely to have HD mechanisms.
