A dual IBM 8" diskette drive is for sale on eBay:

It looks like the Display Writer drives to me. Will it work with a System/36
5362? The connector on the drive looks like it matches the connector on my
5362.

It looks like a toaster, without the bread slots!! :-)
What type of controller board does this use? Anybody know?

Yes, it is a #6360 from a display writer. It has a 25 pin male
connector and a 37 pin female plus power. I have had one here for several
years trying to figure out something useful for it. The only thing else I
can tell you is that it uses soft sector disks.
If anyone can come up with a circuit diagram for it, it would be
much appreciated.
