HP 9133XV jumper query

[John S]

Hi,

Jürgen Keller recently cracked how to access his 9133XV combined hard drive 
and floppy drive unit from his HP-85 - see full article here: 
http://www.hpmuseum.org/cgi-sys/cgiwrap/hpmuseum/articles.cgi?read=562

I would like to check with other 9133XV owners if their drives also had the 
same A/B/C jumper, I suspect this was only present on certain revisions of 
the drive.

If it seems to be on all revisions this is excellent news as these drives 
often crop up on the second hand market.

Regards,
John
