Guys,

The FD55GFR is usable on a CoCo as a 720k drive, as has been mentioned.

Get the manual here:

Pay attention to the LG and I "straps" or jumpers. Those are the ones 
you want to play with.

Of course being a 720k drive it won't be able to read stock CoCo disks 
without a hacked ROM or an external step-doubler.
