Does anyone here have experience fixing floppy disk drives?
I have two 1.2MB 5.25" disk drives that are faulty. The Mitsumi's head moves back and forth during boot but the spindle motor doesn't spin. I can move it by hand no problem. The second drive is a Teac FD-55GFR and this one also performs the floppy seek upon boot, spindle motor spins but it refuses to read any disks.
Any ideas?
