Faulty Floopy drive

Post by fill-ST »

Hi all , Tried to boot up my STfm for the first time in years and had trouble reading disks. After stripping out the floppy it looks like the belt has snapped. Just wondering if anybody has any suggestions or recommendations about repairing or upgrading the drive. Thanks

Just replace the belt and clean the heads and it will likely get you running again. I sell replacement belts in my store.
