I've heard that you shouldn't use high density disks in double
density drives, that the data wouldn't be reliable. Well, I just
bought a bunch of double density 3.5" disks to use with my Apple
//gs and I got to thinking about this. Is it because of the drive or
the controller? I would think it was the drive, if so, I have the Apple
SuperDrive which can read/write high density disks except I don't
have the SuperDrive controller for the //gs. Thus I'm stuck with the
800k format. Could I still use high density disks in this drive
without problems?
Thanks.
