The Seequa Chameleon 325 was the only machine that I ever saw that came
with one. (in my 25+ years of media conversion :-)
I once took apart a Loral 1553 bus-analyzer that had 3 or 3.25 inch
drives. I gave the drives and disks to Don Maslin. IIRC the disks were made
by Dysan. I don't remember who make the drives but it was one of the common
manufacturers.
We've discussed 3.25" before.
Yes, you should be able to find a lot of information in the archives.
