A friend wants to put a third party low density floppy drive in his AT so he 
can write PC-readable diskettes.  I've been told that any standard low density 
drive will do.  Is this the case?  Or do I need a special AT 
controller-compatible low density floppy drive?  Also, who are reputable drive 
vendors?
