I have these two disk/cartridge drives for sale.

The SyQuest drive wrote data just fine but took forever to read and sometimes froze up. It required a parallel port and I think DOS 6.2 or lower.
The Bernoulli drive was working the last time I used it a few months ago.

Asking $10 + shipping for the SyQuest and $15 + shipping for the Bernoulli setup.

That drive is labeled SyDOS. In a weird marketing move, SyQuest sold to VARs and later created SyDOS as seperate entity to handle direct sales to retailers. Just caused confusion, especially with SyTOS tape software and most drives going to Mac systems with DOS nary to be found.

I have learned something. I didn't know that the 5.25" SyQuest drives worked with parallel ports. Wish I had the extra money to pick it up.
