[sebhc] Diskette Drives

[Barry Watzman]

First, no, all Tandon TM-100's are 40 track (the only 35 track drive made
was the Shugart SA-400), and second, the alignment for the SA-400 (e.g. 35
track drives) was the same as for the 40 track drives.

It's possible that the TM100 drives are 35-track (TRS-80) instead of 40
(H17).
