Hi Alan,
3. The system "ran when parked" about a dozen
years ago, but it was left
in an open barn after that. How likely is it that the disks will work
and be readable? One is a Fujitsu M2333; don't recall what they other
one is.
Alan, I have a few of these drives of which two were stored in a humid environment before
I got them. There was rust everywhere... After a bit of cleaning, they both worked fine,
formatting and checking was successful. In my experience, the 8" Fujitsu SMD drives
are rock-solid, all of my drives work, never had issues, even after years of storage.
It's a very different story with the 10.5" Fujitsu Super Eagles...
Talking about such drives, did anybody ever come across some manuals for the Super Eages
M2361A? There are M2351 Eagle manuals online, but not for the Super Eagles which are
different. Never came across a paper version, either.
Best regards,
Pierre
