Subject: Re: general (Floppy Drives on the Xerox 820-II)

I would say that there is, indeed, no such thing as a "hard sectored **drive**".
What was hard-sectored or soft-sectored was the **disk**, not the drive.  For a
long time I used 5-1/4" dsdd drives with the "hard sectored" controller in my
Heathkit, then moved those drives to a PC clone.
