[Blindapple] R repairing an apple 2 e drive

[Ed Eastman]

Many disks when open will have a black and white striped sticker you can use to calibrate speed using a fluorescent light.  I used to use that.  Guessing one could print a sticker and slap it on yourself if desired.

Hmm, maybe someone needs to make calibration stickers…
