Floppy drives

General information on the drive hardware can be found as a side issue in the article on CBM floppy drives and their Commodore DOS.

  • 5 ¼ -inch floppy devices (general VC15xx ) with a drive and CBM -bus interface 1540/1541 / 1551
  • 1570/1571
  • SFD 1002 - Between writing, quadruple -density, 1 MB total memory, sa SFD 100x
  • CBM 2020 - Prototyping with bugs
  • CBM 2040 - revised ROMs, DOS 1, 670 blocks for user files, can write a VC1541 -like format, so read on CBM 4040, CBM 2031, CBM 4031, VC1540, VC1541, VC1551. VC 1570 VC1571
  • CBM 3040 - as CBM 2040 suitable for CBM 3xxx series
  • CBM 4040 - DOS 2.0/2.1, 664 blocks for user files, " Relative files " read and write compatible with CBM 4031, CBM 2031, VC1541, VC1551, VC1570 and VC1571, 2 × 170 KB
  • CBM 8050 - DOS 2.5/2.7 unilaterally writing, quadruple -density, 2 × 500 KB
  • CBM 8250 - DOS 2.7, both sides writing, quadruple -density, 2 × 1 MB

  • CBM 4031 - as CBM 4040, 1 x 170 KB
  • CBM 2031 - as CBM 4031, "low profile" - new design as VC1541, as this only with a microprocessor 6502
  • SFD 1001 - as CBM 8250, "low profile ", 1 x 1 MB, sa SFD 100x
  • CBM 8280-1 MB or 512 KB per drive
  • A1010 - External 3 ½ -inch drive (high)
  • A1011 - External 3 ½ -inch drive (flat)
  • A1020 - external 5 ¼ -inch drive

The 5 ¼ -inch drives with high capacity of 0.5 and 1 MB are like the models with lower capacity to DD ( Double Density ) floppy material designed with high- density floppy they can not work reliably.
