it's bascially that you just connect a 5.25" Floppy connector on your amstrad CPC (for german ones you need centronic like connectors) and a standard 34pin connector on your floppy, power it up ... and off you go. Images can be written to floppy on your PC with a tool called CPCDiskXP
Dude... my CPC boots up off a Symbiface II and hard drive with over 2000 games all instantly accessabile. I found the 3.5" F.D.D disks to be a little unreliable, still its a good option over the 3" disk.

Oh ... and I forgot ... this only works for 664/6128 machines ... for the 464 you need a special interface.
