Daniel, it isn't the end of the world because you can buy reconditioned ones,but yes that can happen but as a temporary solution it's ok,i.e. dumping files from a PC to the ST if fitted with HD,I've got an interesting drive on my MegaSTE it reads 1.44mb floppies perfect but will only format to 720k. work that one out! It is TOS 2.06 so shouldn't be a problem,in theory..... no wonder people buy the ultra-satan...
