Anyone have any experience disk imaging 'Lanier' 5.25 floppy disks? Our Mitsumi D509V5 floppy drive attached to a Kryoflux does not recognise the disks. They have multiple index holes, which indicate where the 'hard' sectors start according to this web page: https://cowlark.com/fluxengine/doc/disk-aeslanier.html

@foone Kryoflux says that there is no disk in the drive, so can't capture a raw stream. The only other equipment we have is a Mitsubishi MF504C-327UW 5.25 drive, and greaseweazle and FC5025 floppy controllers. I haven't tested any of this myself, so i'm just going on what my team member has told me they have tried so far.

@foone oh! I forgot we actually have an additional modified drive specifically for flipped disks and I didn’t think to try it out for these disks. Will try that with Kryoflux, but also check out the greaseweazle options
