here, I observe - the track is read in a few revolutions of the disk, that is
the data flies into the header several times, is this either data in pieces
or a comparison with previous attempts?
I also noticed that the computer goes through the tracks faster, even when it's a Speck
disc reads...
and, by the way, on the RK-86 there was no special microcircuit at all, everything
was attached to the BB55 plus a bunch of logic - and nothing worked...
I’m just thinking of cramming the entire (almost) flop controller into one chip (having studied
the RK circuit, I realized that it’s not very difficult), here’s just some information
on working with a flop drive on FM-MFM almost none... but it’s a pity, because the scheme would consist
only of the sample #3d00-ff ...
Good luck,All !

this is a dream of the mind that gives birth to monsters.

normal Spectrum software reads the flop in 32 seconds - so that the PC
only swallows dust.

what's the point?

the point is that the controller will fit on a board the size of a credit card...
and it won't burn.
Good luck, Oleg !

what kind of asm do you use? damn, it took me twice as long to bring it to canonical form than it took to write it.

what’s the point? do you want to set up mass production? this won't be on the Spectrum
anymore.

Not a big deal? format with interaction.

It can’t be, it’s a pisyuk!

Only in RK it is completely incomprehensible disc format that is not compatible with anything.
