/* Motor On/Off Flip-Flop */
Another exception is the Gotek drives. They don't take the motor flip-flop into account and are always on. [https://64nops.wordpress.com/2021/07/04/a-la-decouverte-du-fdc/ Source]
The floppy disc disk rotates at a nominal speed of 300rpm, with some tolerance. This tolerance of the FDC has been measured by [[Roudoudou]] to be ±12% (it worked from 220 kbits/s to 283 kbits/s for a reference of 250 kbits/s).

The FDC speed is more impressive when you realize the Amstrad CPC’s tape loads at only 2 kbits/s in fast mode. Note: tape loading can be way faster than that if an MP3 player is used instead of a real physical tape, as it has been demonstrated here: https://youtu.be/MAIsOIwgJWA
