Closed Working 5.25" 360k Floppy Disk Drive (black)

[MMaximus]

I'm looking for a working 5.25" FDD with a black bezel to finish my Turbo XT build.

Ideally a TEAC FD-55BR or B, but will consider other brands or models as well.

Laugh at me if you'd like to, but does it need to be a 360k Model, specifically? The "recent" ones are rates 1.2 MB, does that make a difference to an XT?

Well, from what I know 1.2M drives can't write 360k disks, and XT don't have native support for HD drives. So an XT without bios extensions wouldn't be able to read a 1.2M disk...

Interesting. Those 360k ones must be even rarer...

Thanks for the education!
