I have a Newbury NDR 1105 drive I'm keen to
rescue. On its last use the drive spun up normally
but after a few minutes there was an impresive
flash and smoke.
On inspection the only thing that seems to have
burned out is a surface mount capacitor - although
quite a large one (10u).
The contents of the disk are quite valuable in that
they hold a late copy of the 'colour card' edition
of 42nix, a Whitechapel Workstation OS. I'd like
to archive that if possible.
Any tips for rescue? I've managed to remove the burnt
out capacitor and can replace it. There appears to be
no other damage on the board apart from some scorching
to the PCB.
Thanks
Ian.
