The drive/disk utilities are designed to help you determine the capabilities of your setup.

Use the media integrity test to determine if the floppy disks you are trying to copy on to are actually still good!

The max track utility lets you know just how far out your head will go.

The disk eraser writes a high frequency pattern that will completely wipe out any previous data pattern.

The alignment mode is handy if you are doing drive alignments. Once you put your alignment disk in the drive and start the alignment mode, you can use the Test Track slider to move the head to any track and select a side.

I am working on the other two utilities still.

Awesome!
Just a note not a bug, when the format is complete it says "Erase Commpleted!" Smile
Thanks! I will change that!
