Commodore 1541 5. 25 " Floppy Disk Drive, - PLEASE READ, BAD HEAD
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:19048979 | Brand: Commodore |
Disk drive as shown. The only known issue is that the head is bad (a common issue with thee Newtronics drives). The motherboard (and power supply) was fully tested with a separate working drive and works fine (performance tested, loaded games, etc). Also the drive mechanics are good -- tested the motor and head movement, all works smoothly. The head is just "open" (tested with ohmmeter), so it won't read anything. If you have a drive that needs a new m...otherboard or the mechanics are rusted, this could get you going.
The case is intact and good physically, but is very darkened.
Will be packed well to avoid damage.
As with all vintage computer equipment, things can go bad any time. No warranty is given, an I can only guarantee that it works as described at the time of arrival.
