My first drive was a flaky Duodisk that kept wrecking directory files.
I ended up swapping it for a working Disk II drive.
Does anyone know whether two Apple 5.25" drive mechanisms could be
installed inside the Duodisk housing? Seems like they could be
daisy-chained at the rear....
Also, suppose that you have a bad DuoDisk. The hardware bug is in the
analog board, correct? Could the lower half (mechanical) portion of the
two drives be used successfully in a platinum 5.25" drive (single unit)
housing???? If not, then why not????
