- Just to add to the discussion, last night I as using the DISKCOPY command from
- DR DOS 6 and to my surprise when copying high density floppies there is no
- disk shuffeling like with MS DOS 5. The software copies the entire disk to RAM,
- then to the destination. With MSDOS 5 you need to insert the source and
- destination 2 or 3 times.
