Since the drive in the second unit works correctly,
I'm probably not going
to spend any time on it. There's plenty of work ahead replacing all the
wiring harnesses and cleaning the case and chassis.
And that's where I differ from most other people (on this list, and
elsewhere). I would want to figure it out, just because it's a puzzle to
solve. The fact that I had another working example is irrelevant.
If someone put one of these balky drives in your hands, would you have any
interest in tinkering with it?
Possibly. I wonder if there are any Mac 400K drives around over here (I
believe that's the same mechanism),. I would want to see a complete (not
neceasarily working) example of the drive.
