The Commodore 1572 was a dual floppy disk drive designed by Commodore International Commodore .

Commodore Records was founded in the spring of 1938 in music 1938 by Milt Gabler , who in 1926 had founded the Commodore Music Shop in Manhattan , New York City , originally at 136 East 42nd Street Manhattan 42nd Street in the Commodore Hotel , and from 1938 41 with a branch at 46 West 52nd Street Manhattan 52nd Street ref Peter Clayton and Peter Gammond, The Guinness Jazz Companion Enfield Guinness Publishing, 2nd edn, 1989 , p. 65. ref an address commemorated in Chu Berry s Forty six, West Fifty two . The bulk of Commodore s issues were of Dixieland jazz, though other styles also sometimes appeared on the label. Eddie Condon recorded frequently for the label, with such notables as George Brunies and Pee Wee Russell often in his band. Commodore was one of the first labels to list the full personnel of bands on the label. Billie Holiday also recorded for Commodore in 1939 and 1944 , with Strange Fruit and Fine and Mellow first appearing on that label. After World War II Gabler went to work for Decca Records , and his Commodore label was later used by Decca for reissuing earlier jazz recordings on vinyl record LP .

They used a wide rectangular steel case form similar to that of the Commodore 4040 , and used the IEEE 488 interface common to Commodore PET Commodore PET CBM computers. The 8050 was a single sided drive, whereas the 8250 could use both sides of a disk simultaneously. Both used a quad density format storing approximately 0.5 megabyte per side. The density of media was similar to later PC high density floppy disks, but the 8050 and 8250 could not use PC high density disks reliably. Since quad density disks were rare even at the time, users quickly found that typical double density floppy disks had enough magnetic media density to work in these drives. These drives were not dual mode , so they could not read or write disks formatted by the more common lower capacity Commodore 1541 or Commodore 4040 models. Some variants of these drives existed. The Commodore 8250LP was the 8250 in a lower profile, tan colored case. The Commodore SFD 1001 was a single drive version of the 8250 in a Commodore 1541 style case similarly to the Commodore 2031 Commodore 2031LP , often used by bulletin board system s for their physical similarity to 1541 s and high capacity and speed.
