3.20.1
Function Description
This function formats the FDD, copies the floppy disk and displays the dump list for both the FDD
and HDD. Note that the T4600/T4600C does not support an external FDD. Therefore, all referenc-
es to an external FDD (3.5-inch or 5.25-inch) relate to the T4500/T4500C Computer.
FORMAT
NOTE: This program is only for testing a floppy disk drive. This option is different from
the Toshiba MS-DOS FORMAT command.
This program can format a external 5.25-inch (T4500/T4500C) or internal 3.5-inch
floppy disk in the following formats:
2D: Double-sided, double-density, 48/67.5 TPI, MFM mode, 512 bytes, 9 sectors/
track.
2DD: Double-sided, double-density, double-track, 96/135 TPI, MFM mode, 512
bytes, 9 sectors/track.
2HD: Double-sided, high-density, double-track, 96/135 TPI, MFM mode, 512 bytes,
18 sectors/track.
COPY
