- Most 3 1/2" opticals conform to a standard that ends up supporting 128
- MB of storage. Apparently, the OCEAN Microsystems Vista V256 can read
- and write standard 128 MB disks, but can also read and write special
- 256 MB disks in a proprietary format.
-
- 1) does anyone have any experience with these drives?
- 2) are they likely to be incompatible with emerging 256 MB standards?
- 3) any other useful information?
-
- Thanks! Email; I'll summarize.
