Hi, I have a real simple question but would like to know the answer to it...
Can we use the usual (I don't know the brand, but I think it Western Digital)
floppy/hard controller in an AT-compatible for both a 5-1/4" 1.2Mb and a
3-1/2" 1.44Mb disk drives?  Presently I guess that it is possible since I
think the drive controlling software is on the drive themselves but I am very
unsure of this.  Thanks.
