    Definitely isn't an Amiga without that iconic loading sound. Although I hated the constant click of the empty drive and always installed a noclick utility.

    But I have to admit my main 1200 and 600 both have Gotek drives these days because it's so much easier. Especially as I've converted a lot to adf files using my Kryoflux. But I still have another A1200 with a drive to load real disks.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    I had never heard of a noclick utility.

    But then, as I never had a hard drive, there would not really have been any occasions when my A500 didn't have a disk in it.

    It was a little program the loaded in the workbench start-up sequence. All my Amigas had HDDs so would boot into Workbench if no disks were inserted. Loudest drive was probably the A4000. Although it was drowned out by the even louder PSU. That was loud.
