	I wish to to be able transfer files between an IBM pc 3 1/2" high
density drive and the HP 3 1/2" (270/710K) disk format as produced by the 9153
HP disk drive. Can I,
	
	1/ Read the HP format on a IBM high density drive ?.
	2/ Write the HP format on IBM high density drive ?.

The HP systems is a 9816S running Basic 4.0 and the 9153 includes the 3 1/2"
drive.  Any suggestions as to whether this is possible and how it might be
done would be most welcome.

						Paul.......
