Zlodo posted:the Amiga filesystem could fit 880k on a DD floppy disk instead of 720k and supported long filenames natively instead of using lovely hacks this raises a question of how many raw bits are on a floppy. same with a cd like didn’t some cd movie file format use a different mode that had less error checking cos errors in a mpeg stream don’t matter much compared to just having more data overall on my amiga i had a driver which put 900 something kb on a floppy. how did it do this? less error checking I presume. maybe it asked the head nicely to get closer to the edge idk

Zlodo posted:iirc the standard low level track format had some metadata and maybe some crcs (i don't remember exactly) I just remember that game devs that wrote their own disk routines would often just write a big blob of data on each track instead hmm loved it how on the amiga the devs just took over the hardware immediately upon game launch
