  If someone can send you an 8280-formatted disk, that's great (not sure
  how many of those are out there), but I think there are some partial
  tests you can do with more common media.

how many 8280's are even in existence?  Being a millionaire is easy, first get a million dollars and then ...  Same goes for the 8280....formatting an 8280 is easy, first get an 8280 drive and then ...

I just think it's ironic you have this drive and no disks.  I have piles of new 8" disks and not a single 8280 :-)
