It may be that you will need a different disk drive in order to read the back side of a disk if you can't determine a jumper setting that ignores the index hole sensor.
Thank you for your Help.
It is quite the journey as I have to learn. But it is fun and i can save some old tec from the Dump. I will look for a Drive that can be set to ignore index mode or a Single sided disk.
The Problem with this Drive is, it does not engage the Upper Head if you put the Floppy wrong in. Also i tryed a lot of Jumper settings without luck. But it will still be a good Drive that i can use in my New Retro Computer
