Necro bump!
I was playing with some more Chinon FZ-357 drives and found out how to successfully mod the other type. This other type I mentioned Is a Japan made model, says on the back label. The one I was able to mod was a Malaysia model.
Set rear jumpers as described in my previous post.
Malaysia model: solder Jumper on J2
Japan model: solder Jumpers on J2 & J18
Both working great!
This drive was salvaged from old PC and it worked after jumpering and
cleaning as Amiga drive without any soldering.
