- The 1541 II has an external power supply, the 1541 does not. I have
- noticed that very rarely some software that is very disk oriented, may
- not run on a 1541 II, but this is very rare.
-
- I think the 1541 II runs much smoother than a regular 1541. Only
- problem was I had to directly solder the jiffy dos chip onto the 1541
- II board.

- I was reading in Commodore World that there is also a 1571-II disk
- drive!
