310, 315, 365

Reference PONTA www.aichi.to gives me doubt about 315D. I do not know whether or not 315D and rest of 310+Template:315 series are special, whether or not they are compatible with other 21mm drives and cables. Reference LWIK-3QAKDA also gives me doubt, saying "For TP 3## only.". However, I am going to be bold and lump these models and their peripherals into article body. My edits made so far were made with confidence. The last revision before I gamble/guess and integrate non-proven (mis)information is oldid=56593. As well, I will throw the rest of Template:365 models in 20mm, without proof. http://www.thinkwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Floppy_Connector&oldid=56593 --Numeric (talk) 2015-09-12
