what about the Sony drives that appeared in the SMC-70
series? Can't we talk about them for a bit? I was
under the impression neither set (one in an SMC-70,
another in an SMC-70C) worked, but then I remembered
that these computers have sort of a mode switch, one
setting makes the puter boot from the drives, so maybe
that was my problem.
Has anyone played with these? Could those units take
a standard 3.5" drive?

All 3.5" drives turn at 300rpm.
Well, . . . ALMOST all. NEC ran some 3.5" drives enabled them to have the same format specs for
8",
5.25", and 3.5"
And some early Sony 3.5" drives turn at 600 rpm,
using twice the normal
data rate. But they have a different interface
pinout as well, so
you're unlikely to see them in a PC.
