5 Quick Format: Select this if the media has already been
physically formatted. Since only the system area of the
media need be formatted, this will require less time.
Full Format: Select this when formatting media that has
not been physically formatted. You should also select this
type of formatting if writing errors occur frequently with
this media.
It is not necessary to perform a Full Format on SCSI
media that has been physically formatted at 512 bytes/
block. Perform the Quick Format for such media.
Only 512 bytes/block media can be formatted.
6 To format the media, press the OK button. To cancel
without formatting, press the Cancel button.
After a floppy disk has been formatted by the TRITON, a
2HD floppy will hold 1.44 MB (18 sectors/track), and a
2DD floppy will hold 720 KB (9 sectors/track). A maxi-
mum of 4 GB can be formatted on an external SCSI
device connected via the EXB-SCSI (sold separately).
This displays information on the media that is selected by
“Drive Select” (0–1c).
