tinkerBOY Amiga Drive Selector – Switchless Boot Selector for Amiga

(1 customer review)

(NEW!)The tinkerBOY Amiga Drive Selector is a switchless mod for Amiga to automatically switch or boot between the internal DF0 and DF1 drives. Pressing the reset keys on the keyboard for about 2-3 seconds will toggle between DF0 or DF1. Also, it works with a Gotek drive.

Unlike any other Amiga Boot Drive Selector which disables the internal drive when booting from the external drive, the tinkerBOY Amiga Drive Selector enables both drives so you can use them when booting from internal or external drive. It’s a great way to copy files using XCOPY from/to the internal DF0 or external DF1.
