In response to the talk on the net recently about disk drives for the C-64, I thought that I would mention the following ad to help stimulate conversation.... (paraphrasing) >>>> The ad appeared on page 45 of the May issue of RUN. The heading is: * HIGH SPEED FLOPPY DISK for COMMODORE 64 * ...With a data transfer rate of 250,000 bits per second, over ten times faster than the serial bus, QUICKDISK ..... MODEL 340 - 2 DUAL 3 in. (286K)........895 dollars MODEL 580 - 1 SINGLE 5 and one quarter in. (286K) ... 695 dollars MODEL 580 - 1 DUAL 5 and one quarter in. (572K) ... 895 dollars MICROTECH P.O. BOX 102,Langhorne, PA 19047 215-757-0284 >>>>> My questions are: one. Does anyone know more details about these drives? two. Does anyone know details about this company ? three. Are these drives compatable with the 1541 disks ? ( notice the 286K figure for the single drive .... the 1541 has only 170K per disk... this seems strange...) please mail me and or post your comments... thanks ... rcs !ssc-vax!clark
