Hi Bill,

What do you mean with 360 drive?

I would love to check those drives out, if you ending up trashing them, pls send them to me.
I cover the postage up to $15.

I have (3) 5 ¼” drives that will not work:



#1- TEAC FD-55BR-566-U The activity light lights up for EITHER Dir0 but the
disk does not spin. Has a slew of jumpers: HS, HL, IU, and RY in one bank,
and U1, U0, D0, D1, D2, D3 in the other. Has Terminating Resistor.



#2- TEC FB-501 Don’t do nothing. The activity light lights up for EITHER
Dir0 or Dir1. Has no movable jumpers. The disk does not spin. Does not have
a Terminating Resistor.



#3- Model SM548D R/W head chatters, tries to move, but doesn’t move. The
disk spins. Has jumpers: 0, 1, 2, 3. Has Terminating Resistor.



Does anyone repair drives? I will ship to you to check them out, and if no
good, just trash them. (Does anyone have a 360 drive for sale-reasonable, of
course.)



THanks
