Looking for a working 720k or 1.44mb floppy drive for my PS/2 Model 25-004. The drive that came in it, would only read 50% of the time, I recapped the drive, and now it won't read at all. I suspect other components were failing and pushed over the edge by the new caps.

This must be a PS/2 drive, as they use a card edge connector.
 
IBM PS/2 Model 8530 8086 FDDs are compatible (and just as hard to find). :) When I owned these without FDDs I used LapLink with INTERLNK / INTERSVR to map another PC's FDD.
 
Let us know! I have had my share of issues with PS/2 FDDs over the years (and creating complete working units out of stacks of donor machines). :)
