3.5" floppy drive in IBM XT?

Joe, This is quite possible... Provided you have DOS 3.3+ and a controller with its own BIOS extensions. I have an XT machine (actually it's an original PC) that works much the same way, although the drive is unusable as I'm currently using DOS 3.21. As far as the hard drive goes, the original XT hard drive was a FH job with an IBM logo on the front of it.

FWIW the computer also has a FH 5 1/4" floppy drive and a HH 5 1/4" 10 Mb hard drive with a Seagate logo on the front of it. Anybody know if this is an original XT hard drive or a replacement drive? It's been so long since I've seen an original XT with the 10 Mb drive that I don't remember much about it.
