Summary: FASTBACK does it, can DOS?


	I own an AT-compatible with a 1.2Mb high density drive.  FASTBACK
manages to write 720K to a standard diskette (double density) in one of these
drives by using 80 tracks.  I would like to know if this is possible through
DOS.  Any help would be appreciated, as this would cut my disk consumption 
in half.
