exxosuk Posted June 29, 2015 Share Posted June 29, 2015 Genuinely fully refurbished drive modded to work on the Atari ST series. These drives have been cleaned internally & externally with antibacterial wipes. They have had the drive motor and gear cleaned and oiled. Drive heads have been thoroughly cleaned. The HD select wire has been fitted to match my 1.44 mod kit (or compatible kits). All drives are tested & working to the maximum extended format of 22 sectors 86 tracks. £22 each. Black fronts also available. I also have similar drives but do not support all extended formats - £15. For more info please see my store http://www.exxoshost.co.uk/atari/last/store.htm Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/239918-for-sale-floppy-drives-mpf920-sony-adapted-for-internal-use/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Payne Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I hate to ask a dumb question but would these work in the Falcon?

exxosuk Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 Should do, Though not sure if the drive ID needs changing or not on it, its been years since I changed my falcon drive so honestly can't remember. Though I do use a MPF920 in my falcon eitherway.

exxosuk Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 I just checked the drive on my falcon and looks like I moved the link over. So same as ST. I will update my store page Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/239918-for-sale-floppy-drives-mpf920-sony-adapted-for-internal-use/#findComment-3269481 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caterpiggle Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 "Faulty" , you mean , it does have a problems issues ? Did you tested your Sony drive into Atari Falcon recently a moment ago ?

exxosuk Posted July 4, 2015 Author Share Posted July 4, 2015 My falcon isn't in use currently. I have always used the sony drives in it. If the drive is faulty, it will crash on the falcon when trying to access the floppy.

Bikerbob Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Last I chatted with Exxos he had sold out of the 920 drives, and only very infrequently gets a hold of them. I would contact him on his forum or website. Not sure how often he gets here.
