It was a DD drive on a Cumana QFS - if anyone out there remembers Cumana QFS
based on the not-so-good-for-your-sanity WDC1772. I used to be a very
impatient soul, often putting a disc in and doing *. and then remembering I
had the wrong disc in and pressing BREAK - this would delete the catalogue
from the disc. Grrrr. I vividly remember, in a haze of anger, rushing to
take the Beeb apart and ripping the QFS out and stamping on it. Luckily, I
had shoes on!

Is that a DD or HD drive?
