More research is indicated. I remember seeing them on other brand
computers, but, that is a *long* time ago and i have no recollection as
to what systems they might have been.
FWIW; those were single sided drives with belt drives and the belts
deteriorate with age more than wear out. So you might have trouble find
any that work reliably.
