Haha, and of course they screwed up the floppy speed issue.

Let's recap (in case someone didn't know):
- Normal floppydrives spin at the same speed regardless
- Amiga drives SLOW DOWN when you insert a HD floppy

The HD floppy is twice as dense as the DD floppy -> data comes at double rate -> you must halve the data rate for the Amiga to keep up.
