Is 5" what you get when you wash an SA-801 in hot water and then
tumble-dry it? (That's okay--I found a forum that identified the DW
floppies as 12"...) :)
What Al means is a controller with a DP8473 FDC in it. The SCSI part
doesn't matter. But the 8473 handles FM quite nicely--and it's
available on standalone FDCs such as the DTK Mini-micro as well as
numerous MFM, RLL, SCSI and ESDI hard disk controllers with support for
floppies. Ultrastor is another brand that comes to mind.
