8k Speedlock

30 bytes added, 23:44, 16 December 2010
Each track was setup with NEC765 sector size 6, which indicated a sector with 8192 (&2000) bytes of data. However in reality, only 6146 (&1800) bytes were useable.
Recreating this format on the Amstrad was difficult because the NEC765 would really try to write 8192 bytes of data, and in doing so it would corrupt the MFM data structure used to layout the sectors on the track.
