Re: Ms-Dos FST
The FST is read only, and

Or the PC Transporter with TRANSDRIVE which allows you to read 360k 5.25
floppies or you can also read 720k floppies on an 800k Apple drive plugged into
the trasndrive or the PC Transporter drive connector. By the way, it also
allows you to format ProDOS 360k 5.25 floppies which are compatable with the
Diamond Trackstar 360k floppy accessable from the a Trackstar and with the
addition of the floppy pass-thru card on a PC 5.25 360k floppy drive (but only
with the later Trackstar Drivers, not those available from Emerald City).
On a related theme, a floppy so formated (360k ProDOS) cannot be read on an
Apple PC Drive floppy on a Mac II with AFE.
jus muddying the waters ;)
