- 1 to 13 are on the top when it's plugged in.
- I've had mine for a few months and don't use it all that much (don't use
- much of ANY floppies), but it seems like an ok piece of hardware. I was
- sorta surprised not to need any special mounting or anything to get the hd
- to work, but it runs just great simply by plugging it in (on my machine,
- anyhow). I'm still at a loss as to whether my df0: is screwed or if I'm
- looking at a chip problem; my external drives work ok, but df0: won't read
- a disk at all.
