Mark,

The drive can be used in both, but device drivers must load either way.  In
other words, you need to load drivers in your Autoexec.bat file when booting
to DOS.  You cannot use a lot of the fancier functions in DOS, but it
doesn't sound like your going to need them for this application anyway.

WARNING:  The 250MB drive can use 100MB disks, but if you try to format a
100MB disk in a 250MB drive you won't be able to read or write to it in
either.  HTH.
