=== FD-1 Drive Adapter ===
This adapter allowed to use an Amstrad 3" drive on Vortex F1/M1-D setups connected to a CPC 464. Since only two drives can be used simultaneously, the 3" drive had to be manually mounted selected first using a RSX command:* |S,1 to use 3" drive as drive A, upper Vortex drive is disabled,* |S,2 to use 3" drive as drive B, lower Vortex drive is disabled,* |S,0 to disable the 3" drive (default)commands.<br />
