This talk of stepper motor disk drives makes me want
to ask again:
Anybody ever seen the 3.5" FDD that used a linear step motor for
the positioner? I had one once and dismantled it. Forgot what the
units make & model no. might have been so as to look for another.

Oh yea.
That was in 1.44MB/120MB drive.
