Some time ago I has the same idee, but it is to much work. You could connect a 1.2MB floppy on the 6300. There are 2 usefull modes: 1: When you could switch (or change) the speed of the drive to 300 rpm. You could use is as a 720KB drive. 2: For 1.2MB you must change the clock freqention of the 765 to 8MHz by changing a jumper, double the faselock oscilator frequention, change the time of an oneshot and make some changes in the systeemsoftware. Without adding extra logic you could not easy switch to the other floppy modes. Henk Peek, henkp@nikhefk.UUCP ..!seismo!mcvax!nikhefk!henkp.UUCP
