I've hooked up the old TANDON 360K drive from my old COCOA, and would like to be able to use it to get files to and from a PC (single density drive). Should this work with TOS1.4? Perhaps there is an ST program needed which would know about IBM compatible format. Atari's "best-kept secret" about IBM disk compatibility -- is that only for 3 1/2" disks? I've tried just about every formatter around, even installed IBM boot sectors. Expectant and Frustrated
