Netters, Thank you for the responses concerning floppy disk controllers. Here is the first summary of the results. SD Systems: "I give unqualified recommendations ... [after] 2+ years ... for reliability and functionality." Versafloppy II The old board (< '82) does not conform strictly to 696 standards. The new board does conform(?). The format used is nonstandard. Godbout: "I have been using ... 2 years ... without any trouble ..." Disk 1 This has the capability to run both 5" and 8" in combination. Can do DMA(?).
