Yes it does. I have an HP 85A,
the PRM 85 and a 9122, and that combo works beautifully. I am not sure I ever tried it
with high density diskettes though. I could check that if you want.
Thanks for confirming that, Marc. I just picked up my PRM-85 board today, and it looks
like I should be able to purchase a couple of different models of HPIB 3.5" floppy
drives from other collectors soonish.
Has anybody gotten around to sharing CAD models for a 3D-printable PRM-85 case yet, or
shall I get to work on that task?
I used the combination of B model ROMs to support SS/80 with a 9122C and
it works fine.
