The hardware specs for the 3.5" drives in the VAXstation 3100
workstations say that they're supposed to be able to read 720K disks.
I am not sure why they cannot, but I will look into it and try to find
out if it is possible to fix this problem. I'm afraid I can't give
you anything more definite than that at this point.
Thank you for bringing the problem to our attention.
