The "before" image before restoration starts. These are very rare, I could not find any info about this drive on the web, but it looks to have Shugart 800's in it. We'll see... pics Reply |

 ..and after an extensive cleaning...not bad. The insides are in great shape, belt is solid.
Took extensive photos of the controller boards for both Drive 0 and Drive 1, so that one can set up a MMFM Intel drive should they not have the original Intel MDS 720 available. Reply |
