Yes. Welcome to the club.

I've had a few of these. I just blocked off all but the index hole (general example below). There is no special option for this in the SCP software. I've done it two ways. Second is generally better if your read drive has no top and you can see the disk insertion. First, if out of the sleeve. I cut up small write protect stickers as they were thin. Never use them and had a bunch. Second if still in sleeve, I used the middle of an old disk to cover. It's small enough that you can slip in through the centre sleeve hole, line up and when inserting, carefully clamp and it will hold in place.

Same hardware/settings as before. 800 Flux 810.txt 800 Flux 1050.txt XL Flux 810.txt XL Flux 1050.txt

Few more - 20 run. I have PAL 65/130XE and 800XL if you need more. 800 PAL (Icognito - Colleen 48k, OS-B) - 800.TXT 800 PAL (Icognito - Colleen 48k, OS-B) - 1050.TXT 800 PAL (Icognito - XL-XE, 1088k) - 800.TXT 800 PAL (Icognito - XL-XE, 1088k) - 1050.TXT

Atari 800 PAL, ATX to floppy via a8rwaconv (v0.94). Unmodified 1050 & 810

Loads on both 1050 & 810 fine 1050 - D1.TXT 1050 - D2.TXT 810.TXT

Real hardware - PAL - Normal 1050 The Atarimania ATX version hangs on the first protection check, the new one loads fine with no discernible retries like it does in Altirra (PAL). 48 seconds vs 60

Confirmed. Both Happy D1 & D2 convert at boot and are open for read/writing.

Mine are all 1234,2

Just tried the SCP GUI with the ignore index for reads selected and using a standard disk B side. One of my drives reads only up to 14 sectors (Teac FD-55GFR), the other reads fine and can be written back ok using a8rawconv (Toshiba ND-04DT). With it enabled I do get an index pulse missing error.

Same experience as BillC with SC Pro I've had a few of these and you have two choices. If non protected and the sector map is not required, copy it onto a normal disk and dump that. The other method is take out the inner disk and cover over all the holes but one and then dump normally (I think last time I cut out the inner ring of a normal disk and taped that on - lining up one hole).

Yes, the B side has sample images.

Software wise I use this. Drive needs to be standard speed, un-happy mode, etc. BASIC required - let the drive run for 10 mins or so as the speed will differ slightly when warm. Speed Disk - Page6_24.atr
