"Old 5.25" drives covers a wide range. If you don't mind the $75 per hour
shop time, you can probably get most any of them repaired. Getting it done
right is not such an easy matter, however.

Before you scrap them?
I'm looking for some old 5.25" drives to bring back a couple of Osborne 1s
to dual drive status.
Does anyone know of a good source for old floppy drives? Or better yet, a
source for getting them repaired?

Somebody recently posted a fairly comprehensive list of floppy drive
model #s with their capacities & base specs. I'd like to grab a few
not-1.2M drives before we scrap them, but I've misplaced the list.
Would whoever it was be willing to repost?
Thanks
Doc
