    I've seen some floppies that have a jumper to switch. I believe one of mine has one.

      Really, how do you justify selling a 20 dollar floppy for $1500.


      oh, and I found one dealer that would sell a USED one for 500.

      I'm going to order a mode 3 and see how it works.

        A 286 cpu?, I'm thinking you could get a replacement uber 486 for the cost of a new floppy driver?

          MMM, there is no replacing the pc portion - it is extremely proprietary- special conectors, special hardware cards, - doesn't even use a standard vga connector (db25)- anything to make sure you go back to the original manufacturere for parts.

                I've seen such floppy drives on Nortel machines if my memory serves me well.
