I have the need to read a whole pile of DEC Rainbow 100 floppies. I can do it on the DEC Rainbow, but that's a huge pita since it isn't networked. I'd like to either connect a RX-50 drive to my machine, or use a 1.2M 5.25" floppy drive that I can scrounge easily enough to do the deed. 80 tracks, 10 spt, 1 side. 400k in size. I think it uses either 250kb/s or 300kb/s for the data transfer rate (same as the 3.5" low density drives, if my memory isn't going south). Has anybody done this before? Any pointers?
