Real simple, mine has turbo rom and that knew about 80track two sided
drives. I used a 3.5" disk with the advent personality card configured
so it looks like a 5.25 80track dd drive and I get 782k per disk (close
enough for 720k(different number of sectors but otherwise legit)!
The drive was mounted in one of the two hole vacated but the 360k HH drive
using a 3.5" to 5.25 adaptor bracket. The 3.5" drive is an older one that
has a select switch for one of four drives. A newer drive can be used but
you need to make a "odd" cable.
