At one point, the 100 TPI was nominally TM 100-4M. I'm guessing that the
'M' derived from "Micropolis", the originator of the 100 TPI drives that
the -4M would be suitable for replacing.

But I have a drive that was sold new as a -4M on which I can find no trace
of an 'M'.


Can we assume that a -3 wopuld be a 96TPI SS?
