Fortune favors the prepared mind :cool:

Great job!

That's pretty cool!

I have a drive exactly like that in my A2000 connected to an A2091 with rev 7 ROMS

Wow, I have not seen a picture of an MFM drive in quite a while. Glad to learn they were not disposed of in a rubbish dump.

Or for us older folks, "BBS phone number is busy. Please try again."

Good luck in your adventure!

That is quite a collection of history. If you can, consider adding some pictures! Best of luck with your sale!

Given the fact that even younger folks can keel over at any moment, I am going to try and make sure I am knocking around for as long as possible.

I hope you are able to get them fixed

Were your A1200's from Escom? I heard a bunch of them came with crap floppy drives...

Any of the electronics appear to be visibly fried? I also recall a friend having another drive go bad, but it was not an Amiga drive. I can't remember what brand it was, but I fixed it by replacing a drive motor belt with a fat rubber band. Long time ago!

A long, long time ago, I did have a drive destroyed because the floppy disc caught on one of the heads and ripped it off. Not sure if this happened to your drive though, but it is possible.

As of today, he has six backers and has accumulated $11.05 towards his lofty goal. Only $44,191.95 to go!

How about adding a subwoofer? Some original Space Invaders machines has such deep bass that it would shake the quarters in your pockets.
