Note on Micropolis' floppy drive naming convention
If you ask yourself what the meaning of the Roman numeral literals in disk drive names
is, here's the explanation: Labeling convention for the Micropolis floppy disk drives
from the 1040/1050 series is that each model number is followed by either the notation
"Mod I" or "Mod II". These notations indicate whether the system operates at a track
density of 48 TPI (35 tracks total) or 100 TPI (77 tracks total). "Mod I" storage modules
have a black disk load actuator and "Mod II" modules have a blue disk load actuator.
