Good news: I found the complete service manual of 82901 and 82902 drives. It
contains full schematics and detailed description of the circuit.
Very interestings...
I shall keep on investigating the board on my own, though. I find those
single-page HP schematics, particularly of something as complex as this,
to be very hard to follow...
I notice the drive schematic isn't included. No problem, they seem to be
standard Tandon TM100-2 drives (IBM PC 360K drives :-)) with the PCB
gold-plarted nnd with an HP part number. Electronically they seem identical.
Does anyone have a pointer ot the TM100 service manual? I am not looking
for schemaitcs, those I have many times over. I am looking for the
alignment instrucitons, exploded diagrams, etc. Drive 1 in my 82901 needs
a little repair, and I want to see what hte offiical procedure is before
I ignore it :-)
Does your 82901 have the 36 pin microribbon socket on the back for extra
drives? Mine doesn't.
