I am searching for some manual/datasheet for CITIZEN U1DA-03A.

I am also interested if anyone know the size of the rubber belt.

The FDD is part of the Toshiba's external FDD PA8380U
 
Funny I am in the process of ordering a belt for mine. Same drive.

There is a good youtube video that shows how to quickly change the belt.

I am going to replace the belt with
8.6 inches long
.125 inches width
.025 cross section


I will report back if this is a good solution.

Couple of awful leaking caps on mine that need replacing.
22uF 16V surface mount electrolytic.
 
No final verdict yet. I am waiting for caps to be installed before I finish. Initially, I feel it may be ok but it could be a bit tight. The 8.8 inch might be better. I'll tell you mid next week after my caps arrive and I can do a full reassembly.
 
Reporting back..I'm happy enough with belt I bought. It seemed to give a bit and in the end the drive works as expected so, all good.
