Doug Spence said: A few years ago I picked up a large quantity of 16 sector disks and I was begining to think that I would never find a machine that needed them. Then I found this FDS-100 Minifile made by G.U.C. Products. This is a micro based floppy subsystem with a single drive, keypad and RS-232 interface (it was also available with 488, 8 bit parallel, or PDP-11 interface) You just open a blank file with the keypad, then dump data to the FDS-100 through the serial port and then close the file with the keypad. And loading afile is just that easy too. Anyway, mine is double sided, uses a Shugard 450 drive, and stores 178,560 bytes net on 16 sector disks. --Doug ==================================================== Doug Coward dcoward(a)pressstart.com (work) Sr. Software Eng. mranalog(a)home.com (home) Press Start Inc. http://www.pressstart.com Sunnyvale,CA Curator Analog Computer Museum and History Center http://www.best.com/~dcoward/analog ====================================================
