Warned about using HD disks as SD.
==== Disk issues ====
If you think about to use a HD drive, make sure to close the HD detection hole on your disk. <Still, be aware that the magnetic properties of SD disk and HD disk are different (the HD ones need a stronger magnetic field). When you close the HD detection hole, the drive assumes a SD disk and applies the weaker magnetic field. As a result, HD disks used as SD tend to work but not as reliably as real DD disk (discussed on [https:/pre>/www.lemonamiga.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14829 Using 1.44MB HD Disks in the Amiga... &#45; Lemon Amiga][https://groups.google.com/g/comp.sys.apple2/c/9mUL0vZwx6Q?pli=1 HD floppies in a DD drive.][https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?t=46934 High density diskette in low&#45;density drive? \ VOGONS] ).
