Greetings Netlanders: I have a possible dumb and/or frequently asked question: I am considering the purchase of a 3.5" floppy disk drive for my AT clone. Are there 3.5" floppy drives out there that can RELIABLY and CONSISTENTLY read and write diskettes in both 720KB and 1.44MB densities? And can these so produced diskettes be RELIABLY and CONSISTENTLY read by other disk drives in the world? If the answer to the above question is NO, then I would be interested in knowing which density is in greater use by the PC community. Thanks!
