Hi,

Sadly the Chinon FB-357A in my A3000 has stopped working. It did work fine but then after a reboot the drive became inert - no led, no noise from the motor, workbench shows DF0:Unreadable when it is still connected.

I checked the power and floppy cables and it did come back to life and remained working for a few hours with a number of warm and cold reboots inbetween. However, it is now lifeless again.

If anyone could offer a repair service for this drive then please PM!

thanks! :)
 
It was not a problem with the drive, it was a problem with one of the CIA chips. When they were replaced the drive works perfectly.
