Some drives, like the Mitsubishi M2896-63, can be
configured to
suppress the READY output if the second side of a single-sided disk
is selected, or to ignore the sidedness of the medium. Mitsubishi
refers to this as "Ready Standard" vs. "Ready Modified".
...and others, such as the Siemens FDD-100 (single sided) will output an
"illegal medium" signal if double-sded floppies are inserted.
