woot, how did you do that? i still own my old atari disks, about 500, and really like to know how i could backup my old software.

can you explain a bit? i see this is not a normal atari 1050 drive, where to get it? can we backup old disks with it?

@verblendet sorry, it´s not XE/XL stuff, it´s ST stuff ;o)!

to read 8-Bit Disks ist even more difficult , cause the works with serial lines (via SIO)

There are some tools for WinPCs (using the serial port) and i think there are also solutions for USB, but i´m not uptodate yet.

Can you describe the type of this external floppy disk?

What the hell is the PANDORA anyways???!!!!

I can't find any info about how you are doing this? I read the entire MAN pages for version 1.4 Hatari. Nada. Please help!

Any idea if this can be done with OS X version of Hatari?
