Hello Martin,

I seem to remember that the Apple II drives are double density  (but of 
course it's true that they are single sided).

AFAIK, single density 5.25" disks were in use for a very short time only 
and stored only about 70-90K per side, depending on the format. In the 
8" area they're more common though.

Best Wishes,
