Re: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] VFX discs

2001-06-19 by Bill Wilcox

Let's not perpetuate or escalate the confusion here.  There is no such thing as a "standard" 3.5" floppy disk.  There are "double density" and "high density" 3.5" floppy disks (diskette's actually).  The VFX-SD and SD1 both use "double density" 3.5" floppy disks/diskettes, which are still readily available.  Not trying to be nit-picky, just trying to keep the confusion to a managable level.  Thanks!

the VFX-SD uses standard 3.5" floppy disks.  I have one and I am telling you this for sure.  The format however is not a DOS format which means that the files cannot be read on your computer and vice versa.

  ok.....so now the VFX doesnt even use discs of any kind......

  I KNOW athe VFX-SD uses 3.5's......but thats not the board Im asking about.......Ive gotten every response possible about the VFX........"it does not use 3.5's it uses a special disc"....."it does use 3.5's"........and now......"it doesnt even have a disc drive"!


  can anybody give me the exact info as to what sort of disc drive the VFD has.......not the VFX-SD


  Thanks,
