8" hard sectored floppies

just to keep terminology correct... the 8" inch came as single
or double density - high density entered the marketplace with
the introduction of the IBM AT in 1985 that had 5 1/4" high density
disk drives.

Maybe internationally things were referred to as low and high
density, but not to my recollection in the States or in any drive
datasheets I have seen.
