Yup; should be fine. I don't recall what the DVI came with, it might even have 
been a Chinon drive. 

I replaced mine with two matching 'normal' 360K drives way back when; the only 
issue IIRC when replacing one drive was that the interface connector was on the 
opposite edge and the cable didn't quite reach across.

      Wait, you actually have 3.5" floppy drives working on the DVI? 


      Would not have expected that

        James:

        I'd try it. Seems the DVI is pretty forgiving. I have boxes & boxes of 
old 3.5in diskettes. So, installed two 1.44mb drives in my DVI. I don't get 
1.44mb or double sided, but I have plenty of media.
