I'm sure this has been posted before but I am new to the net. I am interested in adding a 5 1/4 floppy to my Model 70. I am aware of Sysgen's and Procom's products but know little about their reliability. I would appreciate anyones comments on their experiences with either of these products and/or alternative products. I would also be interested in any opinions/experiences with mail order companies. Who would you recommend/avoid?

We use quite a few of Sysgen external disks at this site connected to PS/2 Model 60's, 70's (A21 and others), and 80's. Up to now, the only problem of which I am aware, is that on my Model 70-A21 under DESQview, I sometimes seem to lose interrupts. However, this happens with the inbuilt IBM 3 1/2 floppy as well. -- Tony Wilson (News Administrator) wilson@issun3.stc.nl, or SHAPE Technical Centre, The Hague, NL ...!hp4nl!shapetc!wilson
