According to Wikipedia Ajax can process ED floppies. ED stands for Extended Density and they work at a 1MB bitrate. That's the double the 500 KHz HD bitrate, and hence it would need to be clocked at 32 MHz for this purpose.

Is this true, has this ever been tested? Or it's just a Wikipedia bullshit?

This is the 2.88 meg floppies, right?

I remember reading about them way back in the day but don't recall ever seeing
one actually in use.
