After Commodore 1541 Disk Drive Repair, now it’s turn of the Amiga 500 Disk Drive Head-Alignment or better Ami…Alignment!
Ami..Alignment is a utility that provides a wizard interface with simple options to check, test, and repair floppy drives.
My personal experience with this program was when I found my primary disk drive (internal) with heads not aligned. I was able to load Ami..Alignment easily using the Datel Cartridge options on my Amiga Action Replay MK3. By setting the boot from the secondary disk drive (Df1:external), I was able to select the DF0: to check, test, and repair the drive. Within a few hours, the heads were back to the top, and my drive was working perfectly again.
It is worth noting that Ami..Alignment is a high-precision floppy drive alignment and performance monitoring system for the Amiga. It uses an intuitive, mouse-driven interface to make the process of checking and repairing floppy drives as simple as possible.
Ami..Alignment is an excellent utility for anyone who needs to check, test, and repair floppy drives.
Its wizard interface and simple options make it easy to use, and it can help you get your drives working perfectly again in no time.

Ami..Alignment is an utility that wants to be the real doctor in your floppy drive. A series of tests allows you to discover the slightest failure of your internal drive (or external), all this with a well presented control panel.
Perhaps you ever had messages like “Corrupt Disk” or not being able to read a floppy disk from another Amiga. The reason probably comes from your floppy disk drive (or that of the other Amiga). Ami..Alignment will allow you to detect whether the impairment comes from the engine, the alignment of the heads of the transfer speed, moving, or if the drive is running well at the right speed. The results can be printed on your printer if desired.
When a fault is detected on your drive, two solutions: Either you wear at your service. Either undertake to repair it yourself.
It is in this case it must be clear. Disassemble itself and its Amiga floppy drives: The immediate termination of your warranty. Opportunities to damage other things (if one is not sure of his case).
Prevention is better because to repair (or calibrate) a player, you obviously apart. The documentation (in English) of the software explains (too) simply the procedure. Only cases of the Amiga 2000 and the A1010 external drive are briefly described. What makes me say that this type of manipulation is not within the reach of everyone and therefore the software too.

We conclude that this software can render services for the detection of a malfunction from one of your disk drives. In case of drive failure, the dismantling of the reader is required and so the software is rather reserved either good or handymen to service professionals. For now, the documentation is in English, but will soon translate Vitepro and especially provide more detailed explanations about the possible dismantling of the Amiga (Amiga) and its drive.
This software is actually a diagnostic utility of the Amiga hardware (floppy drive). The presentation of this software is of quality. This type of utility is especially hard for the user and connoisseur of the Amiga well a certain competence in the field of precision when removing the drive.
