 Besides, I was talking about CP/M for the
Commodore 1541 drive.  That's a
multi-speed drive that uses GCR encoding, not MFM.  Try writing THAT with
22DISK on your PC-clone.
I used to know that only C=1570 and C=1571 were capable to read and write CP/M disks
in a proper way. (GCR+MFM)
By the way anyone else apart me owning a C=1570 here?

Ciao

i own a 1570, its a american one with a step down transformer, Its connected to my
PC, and guess what, it writes CPM!!!

Hi Steve,
Yours was the only one response I get (since now) from C=1570 owners
Mine was made in Germany (did you buy it in the U.S.?)

Ciao
