With something like a PRM-85 and the 85B mass storage, E disk and
extended mass Storage you can support SS80 devices such as the 9122C.? I
believe that the gentleman that created the PRM-80 distributes a
configuration for this exact purpose.? When I had an 85A I created my
own card for these ROMs and others and made my design available.

ok back in my day.. I do not think 85 adressed modern drive of 1.44 meg..? so that was
what I was going on.. yes if you can use 1.44 do so.. older new media hard to find...
I am still new to this HP-85 stuff, but I think you are correct about the A model
system not originally handling the 1.44M drive. I think that the upgraded B model ROMs in
the PRM-85 are supposed to let it use the newer drives.
