8" floppy system needed to recover old game data

Re: "Each track (77 tracks per side * 2 sides) can hold about 8 sectors of
1024 bytes each, or about 15 sectors of 512 bytes, or about 28 sectors of
256 bytes."

It's not a standard format, but it is actually possible to reliably get nine
sectors of 1024 bytes on each track of a double-density 8" disk.  I
supported such a format in all of the operating systems that I wrote for the
Zenith Z-100.  It gives you 1,419,264 bytes of formatted storage per
diskette.
