load that pc with linux, and use "dd"
it'll do a raw dump of the drive to binary (iso) format

Hello,
Out of nostalgia and curiosity, I'd like to attempt to "image" the
drive, to see if I can get at the old Amiga files. Any idea how this
might be possible?
If you don't succeed, and can wait, we just got our boards in from
assembly. We made an (hopfully) universal MFM reader/writer/emulator.
But as usual, we are still fighting software issues. Not even an idea,
when we will be ready for user data.
Just saying, don't throw away the drive ;-)
Cheers
