Introduction: Promise® FloppyMAX LS-120 Controller
Board User's Guide
The Promise FloppyMAX LS-120 controller board is
specially designed for use with LS-120 drives, regardless of the motherboard
platform or operating system. LS-120 drives can read and write to standard 720KB/1.44MB
floppies as well as to the new LS-120 media with 120MB capacity. The onboard
BIOS supports using any LS-120 drive as a fully bootable 120MB or 1.44MB disk.
Features of the FloppyMAX LS-120 controller board include:
- Dedicated ISA controller for up to two LS-120 drives
(such as Imation or Mitsubishi) on a single ISA IDE/ATAPI channel
- Use of a tertiary or quaternary address; the latter has
the advantage of letting you keep your current IDE controller with its attached
devices and using the FloppyMAX for your LS-120 only
- Complete floppy operation and bootability from 3.5" or
LS-120 media on any PC platform
- Instant recognition of either 3.5" or LS-120 media
