TESTFDC usage

--------Original Message: Date: Wed, 6 Jun 2007 08:34:37 -0500 From: "Dave Dunfield" <dave06a at dunfield.com> Subject: Re: TESTFDC usage <snip> To completely test the FDC, you need to check Single, Double and Double/128 at each of 250, 300 and 500 kbps rates. These are represented in a standard PC at: 250 = 5.25 low-density drive only, 3.5" low-density diskette 300 = 5.25 Low-density diskette in high-density drive 500 = 5.25" or 2.5" high-density diskette So to check all possible data rates without a 300/360 modded drive, you need to run two tests - either the 5.25" LD and HD drives, or a 5.25" HD and 3.5" drive. ---------------------- I also wanted to do some testing but, despite our off-list correspondence, I'm still confused: 5.25" drive, 3.5" diskette ??? 2.5" diskette ??? 3.5" drive - LD or HD? Exactly what tests should be run with what size/density disk in what size/ density/speed drive in order to get a complete picture? mike
