I recently found a large number of hard sectored 8" disks and
I was hoping some one might knows what computers would use
these disks.
* Dysan 3740/2D, Double sided, Double density, format:
128 bytes/26 sectors, index 1 & 2. (I don't know if these are hard
sectored. There is just one index hole in the disk but two index
holes in the jacket)
* Memorex 3201-3015, Compatibility: Shugart, Write protect,
Single sided, Single density, Sectoring: 32 hard
(Just regular 32 sector hard sectored disks)
* Memorex 3071-2003, Single sided, Single density, Sectoring: hard
* Verbatim FD 65-9000-HR, Single side, Single density, Vydec/
Memorex compatible.
(These have 33 index holes in the disk, but they are
arranged around the out side edge of the disk. Also there is
a 1 1/2" x 1/2" notch cut out one of the corners of the jacket.)
I could not find a web page for Dysan, I searched Memorex's and
Verbatim's pages and I emailed Memorex and got no reply.
