I have a Teac FD-55FV-13-U,  5-1/4", 96tpi floppy drive.
I am using it in a PC clone as a 720K drive.

What is the difference between this drive and an 1.2M AT drive?
The pidgin English document included with my drive covers the
55BV drive (360K) and the 55GFV drive (1.2M) - but doesn't mention
my drive.  Can I select between the two formats with a jumper?

Does anyone have a number for Teac customer service?  The document
notes:
	"...in actual application, further discussion of
	users might be required.  We would appreciate
	receiving your advise and comments on this application
