Prepare the drive
  • Take a look at the diagram: You are about to add the two jumper wires highlighted in red.

  • Prepare your Atari 1050 on a clean surface. Put a towel on top of the table to prevent scratches to the unit.

  • Remove all 6 philips screws on the underside of the unit

  • Flip the unit back on its feet and carefully remove both the top and front cover as if they were one single piece. Be gentle: This plastic is over 40 years old.

  • Place the drive in a way the SIO connectors are facing away from you and the front panel is facing you.
