Stan,
That sounds like the drive that used in the 9122 C disk drive. The big
button in the center is a dead give away. I've never had one open so I
don't know what the model of the bare drive is but it's quad density or
something and it holds twice as much data as the drives used in the 9122 D
or S drives. I think I'm down to my last 9122C but I'll look and see. I'm
working about 14 hours a day right now so you'll probably have to remind
me. BTW what model instrument controller is that?

Hello,
I just acquired an old HP instrument controller that uses a Sony
MP-F73W-30 floppy drive. The hinged plastic rectangular door (that
covers the disk slot when there is no disk present) is missing, and I
would like to replace it. The beige plastic faceplate itself is present
and appears to be undamaged.
Does anyone have one of these doors--or perhaps the whole
faceplate--lying around, or know where I could find one? (For reference,
the disk eject button is a 1-3/8" wide rectangular button in the center
of the faceplate, directly under the disk slot.)
Also, is this drive a 720K or 1.44M, or is it some other capacity?
Thanks,
Stan
