Crescent is the name of a new range of 3" disk drves for the Beeb that come with their own DFS. Produced by a company called Servicon Dynamics (0242-528213), the 40/80 track Crescent 401 costs £149 and the dual head 40/80 track 402 is £228.

Both have 500K unformatted and 400K formatted. They will be available in January 1985.

If you buy a Crescent drive, you are also eligible to join its Inner Circle Club. Membership is £25 a year - in return you get a news bulletin and five games on disk every three months.
