I have an IBM 3.5" external drive, which connects to an 8 bit card which came
with the drive. (The only number on the card is PY227B). I plan to use this
drive as the only floppy drive on an AT.

How would I go about configuring it? and could I use the 8 bit controller card,
or would I have to buy a new one?
