|
Answer» can one increase the capacity of a floppy disk by two fold by using some(i dont know)utilities provided by windows itselfThe humble floppie....1.44mb......well you can cheat by using winzip......How much do you expect >to load to f/d Quote can one increase the capacity of a floppy disk by two fold by using some(i dont know)utilities provided by windows itself Only by data compression. If you find a WAY to OVERCLOCK a floppy drive, let us know. There may be a market for floppy disk drive coolers.A 1.44MB floppy can hold just that...1.44MB. Compacting data eliminates repeating data allowing a file to take up less space than NORMAL but you can still only get 1.44MB of data on the floppy. Didn't some drives use 2.88MB floppies? Just ASKING...Maybe. If it's Double Density. I've heard about those.Double density is actually 720Kb (Or something in that manner) High density is 1.44MB. Quote ...Didn't some drives use 2.88MB floppies? Just asking... Yes. From: COMPUTER HARDWARE .5" Double Density - 720KB 3.5" High Density - 1.44MB 3.5" Extended Density (IBM ONLY) - 2.88MB And some were 120MB. I have one but no DISKS. It reads and writes 1.44MB, also. It's a SuperDisk LS-120. |
