doncleth Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 Hi guys, Is it possible to use a 1050 Disk Drive bought from the US and used in Australia? Is there any difference apart from the power supply? I assume the NTSC/PAL issue only applies to the computers. What is the power supply and requirement for the 1050? Any help is appreciated.

Nukey Shay Posted September 25, 2003 Share Posted September 25, 2003 It's the same as the computer...9 volts. I believe that only the power adapter would need to be switched to one that operates on your current. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doncleth Posted September 26, 2003 Author Share Posted September 26, 2003 Thanks Nukey Shay. What sort of plug does the Drive have? Is it one that can easily be found at electronic shops? TIA. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nukey Shay Posted September 26, 2003 Share Posted September 26, 2003 It uses a barrel-shaped plug. But the problem with using generic adapters is that you might have a problem finding one that emits the correct number of amps (at least 1.7) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
