	I got the new 1989 Tandy catalog and it had a Model 4D in it.
	I bought a model 4 recently and would like to upgrade it to
	model 4D.  My question is this:
	   Is the only difference the DOUBLE sided drives ?
	   If I put 2 48 tpi (PC XT types) Double sidded drives into
	   my model 4 will the disk controller know how to handle it ?
	   Does TRS-DOS 6.2 or LSI-DOS 6.2/3 know ?
        I've only ,up to this point, run model 3 software on the thing
	because when I got it, the person had it in storage for years and
	had lost all of the software for it including TRS-DOS.  I have
	a friend that has a model 1 and some of the software he has bought
	has come with model 1 and 3 diskettes.   He gave me the model 3 stuff.
