rietveld Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I answered a buy/sell ad from a guy selling his dads old "Adam setup. Complete with Hard Disk" LOL This is what he called a ''hard disk'' Guess he was sort of right. It is rigid and not floppy Oh well. Since I made the trip I bought the stuff any way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 Well, at least he wasn't lying. Did you get a chance to test out the drive and if so, is it inworking condition. BTW, the white faceplate and drive look so wrong... needs to be changed to black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drive power LED lights up and the drive itself spins. Just won't load the disk. I am going to try swapping out a different 3 1/2 drive this weekend. I just need to pull one out of any old computer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
