360K Drives-Was: Re: [Coco] Re: Ideal Windows box for workingwiththe CoCo.

I use a 1.2 Mb drive to read/write Coco floppies fine. The only issue is
that occasionally I need to format a floppy on the PC, backup the Coco disk
onto it, then read the backup. It's the Sector 1 issue.

I usually get the model number off the drive and Google it. I have found a
lot of drives offered on eBay stating that they are 360KB are actually 1.2MB
drives - although they claim they can read/write 360KB disks without any
problems. But as we all know....
