     I understand that the earlier versions of the Commodore 1571
disk drive had specific problems, but later models had the "bugs" taken
out. My question is; How does one know if he/she has an earlier model
(with the problems) or a later model (with problems solved)?
 Serial numbers? Run a certain program or test? How?

    Please answer to the net, since I would imagine that there are a 
few people out there who already own or are going to buy a 1571 drive.

THANKS.
