 To Frank Murphy:

 The XF-551 drive, in Double Sided mode, writes the information on the
back side of the disk in reverse. This means that if you flipped the disk
over, it could not read side 2 as side 1. It also means that a disk that ha
information on both sides would still have to be flipped over to work
properly. Sorry!
