The test in the youtube video is with disc inside. The connector pins get contact corrosion with time. This forum is in no way affiliated with Atari Interactive. This is the integrated 3. If the head doesn"t read anything, the light doesn't go on either? Your STe's drive should behave in the same way, so observe that I guess. I don't want to replace it, I want to keep it original I know I sound stupid now

Daves Old Computers - Atari ST
F with latest firmware, again. Are you using this with the STe where it would be the second drive or the original ST where it would be the first drive. This forum is in no way affiliated with Atari Interactive. That st354 require an extension cable.
It's all wired up and powered up but I get not drive activity when booting. SF and kB? Seems that people replaced the drive when they had this happen Or it isn't that straightforward perhaps?
As I don't have the knowledge or skills to test all the chips and switches on the board, I guess this drive will stay unusable for me. Is the drive definitely original and not some double sided replacement, the button hole is not a classic Atari rhomboid shape?
This is a single-sided 3.
Since you are all saying I can only read sinlge sided kb discs, how should sf35 drive react to a double sided kb disc? No registered users sv354 4 guests. If it works but doesn't work in the original enclosure then you have at least narrowed it down to the interface board at the rear of the floppy case or the power supply which is probably going the way of all old power supplies in the capacitor department.

I will do some more checks and get back to you. If it doesn't rotate at all then something more serious is afoot.
CFG file, and I see the contents of that file have changed since I sff354 chose a game to load with the front buttons. There is no internal drive on this original ST, and so drive A: Alan, lift and pull on which side?
Right side view of ST. Note that this one has the optional RF TV output. Yesterday I did a test on the original ST. I've taken some pictures of the unattached drive: This is the integrated 3. Never seen it boxed before. Anyway check to see if the platter is rotating, this is not the usual belt drive driven number by the look of it, which rules out the obviousif it's constantly rotating when you switch on even when it gets to GEM it is probably something to do with the drive id number maybewhich might be a problem on a replacement drive.
I checked the drive and it says 'Samsung' Not sure why it worked, if that's the case.
Reimaged XF for " SF/SF Floppy Drives - Bits of the Past
That has no internal drive, so I connected a Slim HXC to an external drive board and it works for one drive but not two.
We are Atari Legend. Power without the Price. I can put a disk back into the drive However, when I hook up xf354 ST and the SF I hear the drive making the buzzing sound, but no s3f54 on the drive.
I mean, I think the drive doesn't work, but I don't know how to start to look for the problem. If the motor has ssf354 I'm sure it could be for a number of reasons. Right side view of the ST. If it starts rotating intermittently and then stops when the ST gets to the desktop it is probably working fine and you drive heads either need a clean or are out of alignment.
