The floppy drive in my Mega 2 will not format past track 80.  Is this normal?
The one I have has a dust cover that folds down when the disk is ejected.  If
this is normal, can anyone tell me if this is a good mechanism?

What mechanisms can I replace this with, without having to cut up the case to
get a fit?  Thanks.
