[comp.sys.ibm.pc] NEEDED 5.25 inch drive info

pete@utgpu.UUCP (10/31/87)

	hi Everybody
  I have been trying for a while to get this information, I guess I'll
have to try again...
  Does anybody out there in NetLand know the Pinout designations for a
Tandon TM-100-2A Floppy disk drive? (I am talking here about the edge
connector on the back of the drive. I would image that just about any
Tandon 5.25 inch floppy drive would have the same pinout, so info on
any model would be greatly appreciated.

	Thanks in Advance,
	Pete Santangeli
