+9640News Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 This is a suspicion with no hard facts, but I believe it would see it a hard drive image and not a floppy device image. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the most likely scenario. There was some work with the Teac floppy drives ~1994 timeframe, but I don't believe there is any LUN support nor specific 'floppy' support in the SCSI DSR.

No I had a different drive from a odd ball system and had to format them using SCSI program. After Richard Bell updated my SCSI card would no longer work reliably, but I could still format them, but behavior after that was unreadable. My SCSI CD R/W drive was the same as became unreadable. What ever they did to the DSR it worked better for SCSI drives but everything else sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
