Not exactly, real QD disks were tested and approved for that track
density. I think they are physically the same as DD disks, but were more
expensive.

I have some disks here that say "96/100 tpi certified, two sided/double
density", made by BASF. They run fine in a 8250 and SFD1001, but so do
many DD disks.
