I have the NCR Decisionmate V disk, but that is DSDD 48tpi. I could
reformat it to 96tpi if you wanted to try it, but I have NO idea how
similar the two machines may be!
I'll probably pick it up and see what we can do.
Also, would this have any type of bus? It's the same basic form factor
as a PC so I assume there is room for card profiles (doesn't mean that's
not just for the drive overhead).
I would be surprised if it had a bus. More likely the SBC kind of thing.
Whaddaya think?
There is always the chance of getting a disk for it.
