I have an internal 3.5" disk drive (only used for about 2 months with no problem) for sale. I'm selling it because I've replaced it with a 3.5" hard disk. Since the best offer I saw for a drive mail order was $120, I sell this one for $100. Call me at (215) 354-0614 (home), (215) 648-7248 (work).

I ask this because while the drives are electrically equivalent, placement and size of the eject buttons makes it impossible to install an A2000 floppy drive in an A1000, and vice versa. When the internal drive in my A1000 died (for the THIRD time) in the middle of Decmeber, I bought a spare A2000 floppy drive from a friend of mine and tried to install it. I quickly learned that not only is the eject button out of placement with respect to the front of the A1000 case, it is not even long enough to stick out the front of the case. Right now my system has an A2000 drive and no front cover, while I wait until I get enough time to take the old one in to be fixed. --M -- Michael Portuesi / Information Technology Center / Carnegie Mellon University INET: mp1u+@andrew.cmu.edu / BITNET: mp1u+@andrew UUCP: ...harvard!andrew.cmu.edu!mp1u+ "I'm very sorry, Master, but that WAS the backup system" -- Slave
