Amongst the other accumulated stuff were 8 X Memorex 8" floppy drives, never
used and still in their original packaging. There were 2 models, 550 and
651. They are about 4" high and powered by 220v, 50Hz. The model 550's have
an edge connector while the 651's have a rectangular multi-pin connector.
The delivery documentation is dated in May 1977 and also listed
documentation and software that wasn't in the box I opened and is probably
missing. They were never used because they were bought in error.
What should I do? Am I ever likely to find a use for them if I take them?
Hmm, If they are DSDD and in an external case, i would like to have one
of those. Woudl you be willing to get one and ship it? I assume it
would be relatively easy to ship since you say the original packaging
is available.
