I sold a drive (IIRC, a micropolis 85MB) that would spool up and then
do a couple of "ching-chings" and worked fine. I tested the livin'

fellow I sold it to that it would die immediately.

else think that the sounds made by old MFM drives is really
cool??)

Still make me feel like I'm living in the future.
