    The best Amiga floppy drive replacement! Thanks to the SD Card slot and the smart rotary encoder design, there is no need to do any cuts to the Amiga case (like you’d have to do with a Gotek drive). It’s just a drop-in replacement. I recommed to order the OLED display along with the GOEX, it makes using it a lot easier. Unless you plan to use the “on pills” OSD feature, of course.

    The GOEX drive leaves the disk eject button open. This space can be reused for a HDMI connector. I created a 3D printed frame that can be seated onto the GOEX A500 frame, and holds a HDMI connector at that place. https://www.prusaprinters.org/de/prints/79778-amiga-500-hdmi-connector-holder-v2

    GOEX is far superior to hacky Gotek solutions, highly recommended.
