It is very unfortunate this does not work, however, I'm going to pick up my hard drive from home so I don't need to use it anyway. Another question though, by using these HD disks as 800K disks, is there any risk of losing data permanently? I know this is a costly solution but I have already bought a box of HD disk and I really have no use of it other than tape up the hole on the right and use them as 800K disks. Again, any help is appreciated.
