I have a  Zenith 386-16 with drive type 39 (CDC #94155-86, an 80 Mb ST506
type drive, which I assume is MFM. Does any one know if I can replace the
controller with an RLL controller and would that give me more disk space
and faster access. This certainly works with a number of drives but I do
not know about this specific one. Any comments?
