I've tried to attach high-density drives to my BBC, but I haven't been su
ccessfull
since these drives work at 360rpms instead of 300rpms. One of my many man
y
many projects is running an 1772 at 16MHz(?) so it should be able to inte
rface
with high-density drives.
Either way, I believe you should look for dual density 720k drives.
