So, I'm faced with a bunch of 360k floppy
drives. One of them I will put
in my main desktop machine for replicating floppies for, say, my C64,
Kaypro, etc.
I don't know how you're going to do that for c64 disks, since they use a
completely different recording method. If there's some way to deal with that
oddball format with a standard drive I'd sure like to know about it! What should I
look for when choosing such a drive? The best specimen I have
right now was taken from a Morrow Micro-Decision. According to the tag,
it's a "TEC FB-503". Can someone tell me something about this?
Not much offhand. TEC apparently stands (stood?) for Tokyo Electric Company
last I heard.
