I'm looking for a second 8" single-sided floppy drive for my OSI Challenger 3. I've got it booting using a single drive, but the copy utilities for OS-65D are meant to be used with a dual drive system. I've got a pile of OS-65D floppies of various versions, but the only thing that still boots is the master copy of OS-65D V3.2. A second drive will allow me to build a working OS-65D V3.0 floppy and load the Extended Monitor without swapping bad floppies around.
It doesn't really matter what model the drive is. It does need to have an onboard data separator. I'm currently using a Shugart SA-800. If I could find another, or a pair of drives, that would be great since they're mounting one-over-the-other in the OSI chassis. Misaligned/nonworking drives are fine too -- I have AADs for 8" drives.
