I ran into this article: Boost your 1571. The article tells you to use a DD drive. But these are becoming rare. So I wondered if one can use a HD one. The fact is that HD drives can format, write and read DD floppies. I myself have only two machines with DD drives: Sergey's XI-8088 that also supports HD drives and the Commodore PC20-III. But putting a HD drive into the last one means I have to reconfigure some jumpers on the drive and at the moment I have no idea which one. Having several spare drives for these machines I never took the time to have a look at that.
Therefore the question: can a 1.44 MB FDD replace a 720 KB one?
Thank you very much for any info!
