360k versus 1.2Mb floppy drives...

If you flip open the door and see two pins one on the right front corner
and one on the left front corner you have a high density drive. So if
you see only one pin you have a 720. These are the pins that go into
the holes at the top of the 3.5 FD.

Does anyone know if there is a way to tell which is which by looking at
the drive?. FTM the 720k vs 1.44Mb 3 1/2" drives. Thanks in advance...
