Broken but probably an easy fix. Also don't think putting a Winchester drive in a portable is terribly wise but nevermind that. It'll be a NEC D5126 drive - I'd put money on it.

I don't think I'd make enough use out of it, hence why I haven't clicked buy now.
It's not super cheap, but not outrageous either.

Tempting, but I'm not sure I need a second dead 5155 so soon after getting a second dead SX-64.

It will make a good project for Vic 20.

Hopefully he posts up and lets us know his progress.

I will do. It might be a few weeks before I can get into it but will keep you posted.

Excellent can't wait to hear how it goes, and congratulations on your purchase!

Thanks! Have been looking for one of these for a while. Was even tempted by some fleabay options. Even with the shipping involved.
