Adam disk drive uses

[98PaceCar]

I have a chance to get an Adam setup that has a disk drive. I've already got an Adam, so the drive is the only part of the setup I'm interested in, but can't seem to find many uses for it. Is there a compelling use for it? I'm not interested enough in the Adam to pony up for the SD solution.

 

So what can I do with this thing if I get it? Are disk images out there and is there a way to write them back to disk?

Here's a link to a similar question and I will follow up with a couple other links to old threads concerning this...

Thanks for the links! I'll let you know if I end up doing the deal.

Got three boxes of Adam stuff today, including the disk drive. It's really dirty, inside and out, but it is complete with manual and 2 power supplies. A few disks, but nothing interesting. Guess it's time to learn about the Adam!

Congrats on the nice pickup and hope all is in working condition. If you have any questions, I'll do my best to help you as well as a number of other AA Members who frequent this forum and are familiar with the ADAM.
