I recently purchased a TEAC FD-505 dual disk drive for my home system.
When it arrived, I pulled the old drive out, popped the new one in,
and fired up the box.
	The drive didn't work.  I got seek errors on both drives,
and the BIOS didn't seem to recognize it as two seperate drives.
	The drive came with one (1) page of documentation - 
a chart of jumper configurations.  I pulled the drive back out,
fiddled with the jumpers, plugged it back in.
No good.
	I called the Tech Support at TEAC.  On my third try
at making a long distance call to them, I finally got to talk to 
a human.  (Their answering machine cut me off twice.)
	He said it sounded like a fault in between the boards,
and to send it back (At my expense.)
	I did.
	Then I had a terifying thought.
	My system at home is a PC-XT.  The jumper shhet says 
"When connecting the duel FDD using a PC/AT host interface cable...."

	The cable and power supply plugs both fit the board edge
perfectly, which is why I didn't think of this before.
	Is there a way to convert this drive to an XT interface?
am I screwed?  Did I spend $140 for a drive I can't use?

	Responses by E-mail would be prefered.
