Hartford, CT Lines: 15 * Double sided disks are usually for drives with 2 heads. The disks still only spin in one direction. You still face the problem of releasing dirt trapped when spinning in the original direction. I've been using the flip side of single sided disks on a single head drive for several years with no problems on either side of the disk, even though it spins both ways. ************************************************* * Jeff Miller * * Multimate International Corp. * * 52 Oakland Avenue * * East Hartford, CT 06108-9911 * * UUCP: * * ...!seismo!utah-cs!utah-gr!pwa-b!mmintl!jeffm * *************************************************
