 		 #139276 - 8 inch drives
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Richard Erlacher said:
do you know anybody who wants a few 8" drives?


If they're soft-sectored, double sided, double density, and they work, then yes! Absolutely, positively. I still have an old TRS80 Model 16 running CP/M that I keep around for grins, and for the occasional client who needs to recover data from old floppies (yeah, it happens). The drives (slim-line) are way past their normal lifespan, and exhibit erratic behavior. Contact me privately.
