I have one FDHD floppy drive on a mac IIcx. I have 5 meg RAM, so why does it take more than one disk swap to copy one disk to another? I realize the first swap is to check to see if there is space on the destination disk (among other things), but it can take 3 or more swaps sometimes. Thanx in advance. -- francis@pawl.rpi.edu - Francis Schima
