TEAC FD-55GFR = Quad Density?

8 Oct 2005

...
   I'm
curious about the comment about second drive support missing. I am curious why the
addition of a proper multiheaded cable doesnt
fix this?

they actually dont drive the drive select in the cable? 
More and more machines are showing up without physical support (ie:
a select) for drive B: ... I have two Intel P3 board which do not
drive the B: select (which is very annoying since these are two of
the best systems for handling oddball formats with Imagedisk).

Floppy drives are disappearing completely from some new machines,
and I doubt it will be long before the controller disappears along
with them (if it hasn't started already).

Regards,
Dave
