I would like to add that MYDOS is not the only DOS that provides
a command to configure (incl. switch density) such disk drives.
DOS XL (from OSS) provides a CONFIG command that lets you specify
single or double density and single or double sided for each
drive.  (My Percom drives will change density, but are only
single sided, so I can't vouch for the usefulness of the 
single/double-sided switching.)
