TEAC FD-55BR 104-U 5.25" DD floppy drive NOS

[lumi]

I have for sale 2 pieces of TEAC FD-55BR 104-U 5.25" DD (48 TPI) floppy drive for sale. The drive is NOS, never used, looks like it was taken from store just yesterday. Made in Japan. OEM packaging. It has robust aluminium frame. Suitable for any PC and many old retro 8-bit computers.

The drives were not tested. I have one old PC, never tried to connect these drives to it, but I can do it if anybody interested.

Price: 65 EUR (was 70 EUR) for 1 piece including tracked shipping inside the EU.
For shipping outside the EU, just ask.

Payment as Paypal gift, or add payment fees.

I don't really know. I've never tried it, but I think it should work with some kind of adapter or modification.

No it won't work with a C64. The C64 / C128 Drives apart a disk drive unit must have their own controller (the 1541, 1571 drives are small computers on their own).

Any chance on a better price with shipping in Europe?

Hi, the price of 14.30 EUR for the first class shipping with tracking is already included in the total. I can send it with the second class without tracking, but only at your risk. I will not take responsibility in case of damage or loss in that case. And the price will be only 3.30 EUR lower.

Still available.

Withdrawing interest, sorry.

Just found this thread, which says:

taking this under consideration the pure 40 cylinder floppy drive TEAC FD-55BR is not able to create fat tracks or half tracks.
