'''Amstrad''' made two different [[disk drives]] for the Amstrad/Schneider CPC range:
* DDI-1: a set consisting of the real DDI-1 (= Disk Drive Interface) and a FD-1 3" disk drive, as well as the CP/M 2.2 license and disk.<br> This set was for the CPC464 which didn't have a built-in [[765 FDC]] disk controller.
This set was * FD-1: a 3" disk drive as secondary disk drive unit for the CPC664, CPC6128, and for the CPC464 which didn't have a builtwith DDI-in [[765 FDC]] disk controller.1
* FD-1: a 3" disk drive as secondary disk drive unit All drives are for the CPC664, CPC6128 and CPC464 use with DDI-1[[CF2 Compact Floppy Disc]] 3" discs.
There was no official external disk drive for the 6128Plus or even the 464Plus. The difference between a CPC664/CPC6128 and a 6128Plus was simply a changed pin-out which can easily be solved by a new plug on the disk drive's cable.
