I have a few questions about the DC Format program.

I use a Mega 4 with a configured 1.44Mb Rambaby RAM drive (D:) and
I was wondering about the reliability of the 82 track 10 sector 2
sided format. Is it more reliable to use the 80 track selection or
even the nine sector scheme? Or just go back to the Mega format?

And about the step rate (3,6,9, if I remember properly), what is
the function of that selector? I use 6, as that is the way I got
the program.

And does the program crash whenever you select the "?" box? I don't
know about the use of DC on non-Mega STs, but I cannot get out of
it once selected, and I have to re-boot.

Please clarify, thanks in advance.
