Subject: Re: disk drive stuck on a Kaypro

You may be lucky and have a drive just like my original Shugart 604. That
one reminds me from time to time that it loves being petted: look from the
rear thru the blind between the printed card and the body of the drive.
You will perhaps see a stainless steel drum. Learn how to introduce your finger
(NO METAL PART) and exercise gently spinning the drum, with power off. When
you feel you begin to love the drive (and will therefore NEVER get rid of
your CP/M baby), power up and help the drive start. With a little bit of love
from your side, it will serve you for long years to come...
