So Id need a more versatile FDC? Can you recommend one. Are any of these new Quad Floppy boards that were all the news last year up to the task? Reason I bring it up.. I went through my 8" disks today. The vast majority are DS/DD 32 sector 1" floppies. Id just like to know if Im screwed with...

Cansomeone tell me if this drive can read/write 32 track (hard sector) 8" disks?

The only document i have come across is the MAINTENANCE manual. Would that cover default configurations?

Well apparently this company was based out of ridgefield CT. Not too far from where I live. The name now seems to make alot of Guitar related pedals. Not sure if its the same company.

Ill just use the fadap as I already own it regardless of whether it does anything. Im sure a cable would work, but for what I have on hand its fine.

Digitech model 710 protocol analyzer with amber CRT and 3.5" floppy drive. What is it!?

Ok. Im in a bit over my head and could use some guidance. Im using the cable I made (from a standard straight 50 pin scsi cable with a cardedge connector on the end) to the first drive. Im using the D-Bit FDADAP board as if its uneeded, it shouldnt hurt either right? And its a convenient way to...

Do these QUMETRAK 842 drives Spin continuously when powered on? I made a straight through cable. Edge connector on one side. I went over the first drive cleaning everything and repairing a couple minor wire damage.
