They are HD 3.5 1.44MB floppies... I tape over the hole and try "Format A: /F:720" but I get "Invalid Media or Track 0 Bad. Disk Unusable" ... There's nothing wrong with the disks because I can format and use them as 1.44s just fine (without the tape) and if I put them in an XT with the tape and just use Format it automatically formats them as 360K! THIS I don't understand -- are there actually 3.5" floppy drivers that are 360K and not 720? What would be the point? That system already has a 5.25" drive so I can't imagine that would be the case.
Any taped disks formatted as 360Ks from the XT will read and be recognized in the 1.44 drive but any taped disks that aren't already formatted cannot be formatted on the 1.44MB when taped...
Please help 🙁
