Ray: You will find that as a rule the ONLY company that every gave reliable information about their disk drives was heathkit. The problem that all of these guys experiance is that even the manufactures of a drive will change the drive interface board on a given model with the corresponding change to the jumpers. It is at least impractical for the computer manufacture to try to provided that drive information. CBM is not at all unique in that regard and at least they don't provide incorrect information. Happy New Year, bill
