8-bit 1.44 Drive Controller (Was: Fancy Font?)

You can buy these new from JDR Microdevices for $28.88. You have to use this one as the primary disk controller, but it supports up to four 360kB, 720kB, 1.2MB or 1.44MB floppy drives. http://www.jdr.com/interact/item.asp?itemno=MCT-FDC-HD4 I have an earlier version that could be used as a secondary controller. I've been using it for 15 years at least. The only changes to Config.sys or Autoexec.bat that are needed are to point to the hard drive: it gets bumped up one drive letter for each floppy you add (my one 3.5" floppy is drive C: and the hard drive is then D:).

Anyone got an AST SixPak Plus they are willing to part with? I built an XT for old times sake, but it only has 256k. I have to find one of those controller cards that will support a 1.44mb FDD also... Maybe at the Trenton Computer Festival next spring... Al
