My first 3.5" drive was the Commodore 1581. A neat little drive. I had
at one time, 5 of them (you could run up to 8 of them at a time with
different numbering). There wasn't much of anything written (software
wise) that was put out on 3.5" floppies, but for storage, it was much
better than the 170k 5.25" floppy!
