Early 5160 XT's used the fulls, then they came out with direct drive (as
opposed to belt drive) half height drives and a blanker that filled in the
empty spot in case you didn't use 2 floppies in that bay.
I had a 5160 with 2 factory full height drives around, may still.

Actually, it was the 5160 I was curious about. Were
they still using the
full height drives on them?

- Ovid Was the 5150 the only one delivered with
full-height drives? I've seen
both on the 5160, but don't know which is original.
Most all the avaiable drives then were full height but, yes the 5150 use
the TM100 and that is full height.
