 have a friend who is trying to sell me a sony high density 3.5"
drive he no longer wants. He used it on an ibmish type machiene.
I have heard that the power supply in on the drive is backwads
somehow, but that's easily enough corrected. My question is
whether or not there is a way to mount the drive so that the os
recognises the fact  that it is dealing with a high density drive.
I can get the thing for $40, and it works great, so I'm hopeful
that you could just mount it using a differend mountlist entry.
Any help on the subject would be loved and appreciated.

Thanx in advance.
