First of all this is a good place to start:
http://www.freewebs.com/computolio/amiga_floppy_compatibility.htmlNow my findings (which in some cases differ from the page above, which is a GOOD thing as it brings everyone hope: when they say "NO", I say "YES", because it does work!):
* NOTE: "swapped cable" means you have to swap wire lines 2 and 34 at the end of the cable (part that connects to the floppy). Also something I forgot before but Castellen's site reminded me: make sure the 34 way cable is wired "straight" and doesn't have a twist in wires 10 to 16 (like most PC floppy cables do)
* NOTE: short == close == connected == jumper is put between the pins. unshorted == open == disconnected == jumper is NOT put between the pins
* NOTE: even if a drive works, it doesn't mean it will fit (mechanically) in the existing Amiga cases. You'll have to get your hands dirty for fixing that issue...
* NOTE: all these drives function as low density. According to the link above (and experimentation), it's not possible for most of them (almost all) to work as Amiga high density drives, due to the spinning speed which the Amiga uses, which is 150RPMs for high density drives
TEAC - FD-235HF4240 - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Align your drive so that the jumpers start with A at the bottom of your screen, and E at the top. As you're looking at them, the left column is named "2" and the right is "1". You want to short D2+C2, B2+A2
Epson - SMD300 - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
You want to short 14+15, 1+2, 4+5
Mitsumi - D359T2 - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
You want to short "DS0", "SW" but leave "OUT" open
Mitsumi - D359T3 - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
You want to short "DS0", "SW" but leave "OUT" open
Mitsumi - D359T6 - NO it doesn't work!
--------------------------------------------------------------
It might be doable, because there are jumper pads on it, but I've not played with it yet
Sony - MP-F73W-01D - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
You want to toggle the switch to position "0" (zero), which happens to be towards the back of the drive
Sony - MPF520-D - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
Align your drive so that jumpers 1 and 4 are at the bottom of your screen, and 3 and 6 at the top. As you're looking at them, the left column has "1" "2" "3" and the right has "4" "5" "6". You want to short 4+5
Sony - MP-F17W-2Z - YES it works! (with swapped cable)
--------------------------------------------------------------
You want to toggle the switch to position "0" (zero), which happens to be towards the back of the drive
Good luck! Amiga forever! :-D
PS. One day I'll make a nice web page for it with images and much more comprehensive
