Looking for TK50 tapes & RX50 disks...

Jerome Fine replies: I don't have my dual!!! RX33 in my hands right now (it is buried), but I thought that RX33 drives were Teac in the first place. Do I remember that incorrectly? While I never had any problems with the RX50, I found that the big advantage was the extra capacity! 2400 blocks for the RX33 vs 800 blocks for the RX50. PLUS, the RX33 media were standard PC HD 5 1/4" media - no need to have a special format. By the way, that old DOS tool is call PUTR at: http://www.dbit.com/pub/putr/ As stated, a 1.2 MByte 5 1/4" HD PC floppy drive is required even though the media MUST be DSDD or MFM as mentioned by Peter. I have a DUAL!!!!!!!! RX33 floppy drive that looks almost exactly like the dual RX50 drive - probably because I used the discarded case from an RX50. Since the 2 bare RX33 drives arrived without an enclosure, I figured the best solution was to place them INSIDE the old RX50 enclosure and add the bottom skid plate. The cable end is an edge connector for both drives and is daisy chained WITHOUT the standard PC twist when 2 drives are used - which requires the second drive to have a different DS setting. A "Y" power cable must be connected to both drives before the case is bolted into place using 4 short bolts to each floppy drive through the thin RX50 shell. The original holds in the RX50 enclosure accept the 40-pin cable and the power cable. Any other questions I would be glad to answer.
