Hello, it's that time of year again where I have lots of disposable income to put into various hobby projects of mine. I seem to get pretty good results every time I make a post.
I am a collector of vintage hard disk drives, typically from 1979 to 1994 or so, though I don't specifically limit myself in this way.
The majority of my interest lies in drives with the SA-1000, ST-506, and ST-412 interfaces, though of course I am interested in other drives.
I am interested in most "vintage" drives and almost all with those interfaces.
Drives can be any condition, functional or not, cosmetically poor. I am not averse to drives missing components, as long as they are priced accordingly.
Must accept PayPal, must be willing to ship to Alabama. Make me an offer!
I have a long list of drives which I would be willing to pay particular premiums for:
