- Hi,
- I own an old Victor that has the HD controller built in on
- the motherboard. The HD is of a type using 25 sectors per
- track. I have tried to move this disk to other systems,
- just to find out that the cotroller card I've tried ( Western
- Digital only) doesn't support other than 17 sectors per track.
- Does anybody know where I can get a HD/floppy controller that
- will allow me to hook up my old 25 sec/track disk ? ( The disk
- is a 130 Meg one, so it's not something I'd like to toss.)
