Well if you're going to gut them, you might ask Rick Hanson at
Club100.org . I recollect him saying something about a great pile of
broken TPDD drives.

Better than wasting working ones. Anyway the going rate for working
units is $80-$100 a pop, and when the knitting machine folks realize the
TPDD-1 is the same as the Brother FB-100 they are only going to get more
expensive ($200-$300). It's already starting to happen...
