FA: External High Density floppy drive
« on: June 10, 2010, 12:17:09 AM »
Up on eBay is a Power XL high density external disk drive. Works fine. Has the newest software available for these drives. Link is:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Power-XL-High-Density-external-drive-/170497277347?cmd=ViewItem&pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27b26dfda3

I started it at a fair price IMHO.

This one actually has a plastic case! (more of a cover really) It is not quite as yellowed as the photo makes it appear. My camera just will not do any better. The plastic has a small Power Computer logo impressed in the right front top corner - Only one I've seen like this.
You all are right about shipping abroad. It has killed many a sale. AND Priority Mail International has no tracking or insurance! We have to use Express Mail International to get those "features". Man!

Something new - I found the original manual!  The "user manual" is a huge 4"x5.5" with 7 pages.
Not much really, but it's here...

OMG! This only went for $20? :(  Less than the cost of a good 1010 or 1011.

I have to admit... I totally forgot about the auction. Being sick of getting sniped at the last minute, about the only thing I use ePay for anymore are reasonable 'buy it nows' and even those are waning these days. Too bad you didn't offer this for sale here first, but can't say I blame you. Sales do seem to suck here for some reason.

I am selling off the last few Amiga items I have. I tried to sell one of these drives here, maybe a year ago, and couldn't get a $10.00 offer!
I will most likely even sell my A1000 system, IF I get enough for it.  It's a really nice system!
The A2000 will be all I keep.
