2242.0. "Floppy questions?" by VINNYS::MYEE (Care about Ecology? Call 800-225-5333) Wed Feb 15 1989 13:32

    
    I would like to get another external floppy drive for my Amiga 500.
    Do you know what drives are 'quiet'?  I know the NEC units used
    by ProDrive and early Air drives were very quiet.  And, I know that
    there are drives that have clicker fixers in them.  But, recently
    I have not been abel to find the ProDrive?  Are any of the following
    drives any good (CA-880, PHD-135, any of the clickless drives)?
    
    Other related questions, can I replace the DF0: drive in my A500,
    and what drives will fit?  How often do I need to clean my floppy
    drives, if at all?
