I have a teac Extra Density (2.8 mb formatted) diskdrive
with a scsi plate mounted to its bottom. So this is a
scsi-diskdrive you could say.
I connected it to the BERT, MegaSCSI and novaxis scsi. The
Bert-interface is able to use it as a diskdrive and is also
able to format the diskettes in 360kb, 720kb, 1.44mb and
2.88mb size. Stupid enough, this device does not look at the
diskette-hole if it is a double density, high density or an
extra density diskette. You can format every type of
diskette in every size (360, 720, 1.44 or 2.88)
The other interfaces you have to use a fdisk-program to
create at least one partition to use it.
This is not the easy way.
The 1.44 format was compatible with pc, but I am not sure if
it is the same format!
