Hi.
Just received one ONTEL (not Intel) 8" floppy disc drives cabinet from the
UK.
Do you mean that it was made in the UK, but later used in the States, or
that you have just had one shipped from the UK?
The reason I ask is that most 8" drives have mains spindle motors, the
speed of which depends on the mains _frequency_. If the unit was last
used in the UK (50Hzx mains) and you're running it off 60Hz mains, you'll
need to replace motor pulleys, etc.
