At which point it would be even more reasonable to use ADTPro, unless you don't have a serial/audio/ethernet connection available. :-)Correct, but most people would consider this a destructive approach. Since it only works for copyable disks in any event, it would be much more reasonable just to copy the back of the disk to the front of a "work" disk, then transfer that. This approach, though, requires a working Apple II and drive.I wonder why FDI can't capture both top side and bottom side because PC floppy drive has two heads as top head and bottom head.
Isn't it the direction of rotation that makes it impossible for a PC floppy drive to read the back of an Apple II disk? At least that's what I remember reading somewhere.
