Episode Description
The TEAC Drive Episode: A Little Drive Kerfuffle, The New Difficult Life of Floppy Drives, Sustaining the Flux, Circuit Boards, Jumpers and Software Configurations. Plus: A Dream of a Future Superfluxer.
Some thoughts on the TEAC drives that make up the vast majority of the dozen-plus floppy drives I use for imaging disks with my Applesauce DOS work. (TEAC stands for "Toyko Electro-Acoustic Company", I recently found out.)
Applesauce FDC covering DOS disks has been a major new chapter for me - hundreds of disks in the backlog are disappearing into digital form. (And then stored physically forever.)
