LinkoVitch #3 Posted November 18, 2002 you can get some whacky capacity disks and format times by playing with the disk format params.. 79 tracks single sides 1 secor per track.. not exactly a big disk but sounds like you are loading a lot of info even when you are only loading small files Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
