Do you prefer the Teac 55GFV (1.2M) over the 55F (720K)?
The 55GFV for this use is jumperd so that its running as the 55F and 720k
mode. They are interchageable in this app with one note: the 55GFV
is far more common.
Good point! 720K 3.5" tends to be a lot more
convenient for media and
withstanding abuse than 720K 5.25"
I've been running one that way for several years. The drive I burried
inside
as "A:" is one of those oddball IBM PS/2 no bezel types. By doing that
the externally accessable drives are uncommitted and makes space
available.
