I need to connect an external 8" floppy drive to the FDADAP card.
I've found two drives: NEC FD1165A and Shugart SA851. I have to buy ine
of them.
I'm about to choose the NEC one, since it doesn't need an AC power
source.
The Shugart SA851 is targeted 115 VAC, and I live in Europe.
Beside power supply questions, are there other reasons why I should
choose the Shugart? Hard sectored disk support? I only have to
read/write IBM S/36 and 5120 floppy disks...
Thanks!
