Does anyone know of a company/individual who services 5.25 floppy drives including the MPI-B51 -- looking for basic stuff like alignment.

I think a couple of fellowsover on the vintage compute forums (http://www.vcfed.org/forum) do this. Try

It may not be cheap, though.

Dave,

Thanks very much for the suggestions. I contacted Microcomputer Solutions. He has the equipment to service MPI B-51 drives. I sent two to him and we’ll see if they are salvageable. Tom
