Lobo Drives International Docs/Software	by Bill Degnan - 04/24/2008 19:37
The following are the Lobo docs and software I have on hand Lobo brand OEM sa850/851 double sided diskette storage drive service, maintenance manual (c) 1977 Shugart Assoicates (print. 1980) - In short the Lobo SA850 and Lobo SA851 are to be treated as if they were Shugart double sided 850's. NOTE The SA800/801 are the single-sided equivalent. sa400 Minifloppy Diskette Storage Drive OEM, Service, Maintenance Manual "Preliminary October 1982 Max 80 Operation Manual" (spiral binding) Max 80 Operation Manual (hard cover 3 ring binder and hard-cover box) 1984 SOFTWARE: LDOS OS software v. 5.1.3 for Max-80 Lazy Writer for Max 80 MAX-80 CP/M 2.2 (bad disk) Reply
Lobo with Shugart 800 Drives	by Bill Degnan - 11/22/2012 10:52
This is a copy of an email for a Lobo 8" enclosure with Shugart 800 drives in it, for reference purposes. Not sure what system this was attached to, need to check the manual. This is the 2nd time I have found the drive 0 jumpers to be a lot different than drive 1, see my thread on the Intel MDS 720. ---------------- -------- Original Message -------- Sent: Fri Nov 16 22:51:28 EST 2012 To: "midatlanticretro@yahoogroups.com" Subject: Re: [midatlanticretro] Lobo floppy drives Here are the jumper settings: Drive0: installed ‹ DS1-T1-X-B-A-Z Drive1: installed ‹ T2-HL-800-DS2-T3-T4-T5-T6-T1-X-B-A-Z (this drive is at the end of the cable) Drive1 also had a drive_ready modification which resulted in pin22 being put on pin4 of the interface connector (jumper R cut; wire from R to pin 4). Given this configuration I'm not entirely sure what system this might have been used in since the drives are set so differently. Reply
