Please point me to any source of information that can provide data on
your Floppy Controllers? The Floppy controller is a discrete device
from the hard disk controller, with the exceptions of IDE and SCSI
Floppies. USB Floppies use SCSI command sets over the USB bus. Hard
disks and optical drives do not pass data across a Floppy Controller.
They are controlled via an IDE chipset, a SATA Chipset, a SCSI chipset
or SAS chipset, but not a Floppy controller chip. Unless, of course,
you're using a computer built in the 80's before IDE became a
standard.
