3) Try and contrast to the other drive as previously covered.

This will help rule out a few things and provide some better direction.


I know that there some very low-level disk analysis tools (Kyroflux or
something?) Would it be feasible to use one of those tools to verify the
format and data integrity of the floppies?

This brings up a point I'm interested in.  I've got a kryoflux and the parts that hopefully will let me run regular 8" drive.  Does anyone have experience writing RX01 or RX02 images with such drives onto blank media (non dec pre-formatted)?

I'm really hoping to create test media to use before I risk any of the masters I have to any drives (I have a Minc 11 with a lot of floppies).

I hope to image all the media I have via the same 8" drives, and not fiddle with the Minc or RX02 I have, but to just get them going, and use them on systems.

thanks
Jim
