That said, the only drives I have which are 360rpm are

mains-powered motors. Since the spindle speed is determined by the mains

point in having a stroboscpe disk o nthe spidnle, to check the speed
against that same mains freqeuncy. So I've never seen a strobe sdisk on
such a drive.
No, but 5.25" HD drives as well as 3.5" drives for the NEC 9801-type
platforms do spin at 360 RPM.
