Subject: Re: using both side of disks

*
       Double sided disks are usually for drives with 2 heads.  The disks
still only spin in one direction.  You still face the problem of releasing
dirt trapped when spinning in the original direction.  I've been using the
flip side of single sided disks on a single head drive for several years
with no problems on either side of the disk, even though it spins both ways.
