Previous post states that odd tracks are not used. Do you know what odd
tracks contain garbage data? Someone said that we may be able to modify DOS

DOS 3.3 can handle up to 400K on a disk.
It still doesn't have a hierarchical filing system, and I think the
limitation on number of items in the directory is still the same.

Is it true that Disk II Family has an
ability to read/write both odd-even tracks in full that it may be capable to
handle 280KB. Is it possible that even tracks might overwrite odd tracks
that will not be supported? Please advise?
