speedincrease when set for HD disks?

Post by winfryd »

Hello, anyone know if there is a speed increase when you set the Atari STe E6 jumper, I believe you put it on 16Mhz then and lowers the steprate. Is this something the HxC can profit from?

Thank you.

This jumper is only a status jumper, it tells TOS 2.x that HD floppy is installed, yet STE has no support for HD floppy, and mentioned jumper has no effect on FDC, it only enables HD option in TOS.
