I have a model M2896 Mitsubishi 8" diskette drive, I have the following setup below.
I have a DBIT power adapter and a DBIT 50 to 34 pin cable adapter. On Chuck G's advice I have tried to operate the Drive with an Adaptec Drive with a floppy controller, Sergey's FDC controller board as well as an XT-FDC board from the forum. All of them work.
I am trying to assist a friend who is trying to setup the same basic configuration with a Shugart 851. He is hoping to find a less inexpensive option that the DBIT adapters. I found a 50to34 PCB that think will work.
Can I use a MEAN WELL AC-DC Power Supply Dual Output 5V 24V, that you find on Amazon, with the correct connector for the Shugart Drive.
Thanks,
Jimmy
