Even ones suffering from errors?
But yep, if a "cope with 99% of drives" solution is cheap or relatively easy
to do, then it's definitely a worthwhile project - ST506/412 drives are not
getting any younger. It'd still be useful to have something which would aid in
reading that other 1%, but as it's more complex to do, perhaps it's best as a
separate project.
