I have been told (by an IT professional, take that for

that 5.25" 360K drives have the latch handle on the left side of the

I have in view right now, this is true.
Anybody have a notion of whether this is absolutely true in fact?
It sure would make sorting drives easier than trying them out on an
old peecee! (Which actually needs to be done anyways, to test for
functionality.)
NO F WAY
You should know better than to talk to an IT professional.
The Teac 55b (360K) and 55G (1.2M) have the same door/latch
The Shugart/Matsushita 455 (360K) and 475 (1.2M) have the same door/latch
How many more examples are needed?
