Well, it turns out that the FP17W-50L is the drive used in my 9100A/FT (has things like "SAMPLE" and Engineers disk" written on its cover) that allows me to write 1.44 (1.2?) HD discs. Just did a backup that would require 10 regular floppies on 5 HD floppies...somewhat handy. Still am looking for more ways to archive the system.
Tried to find a PDF of anything on that floppy online, but nothing has shown up so far. Was thinking if I know the full parameters of this drive, then other 1.44s may well be able to be used. Note whatever drive you test it must be able to be set to D0 (drive 0) or the 9100 can't find it at all.
Not sure of the pinout for the 9100A/FT floppy port...

Got another floppy to work - Fujitsu M2537B11D. Jumper settings are "DS0" and "RY". Seems to read & write HD just fine on the 9100A/FT.
