  • wow thats one weird looking hard drive! how many mb's?

  • It seems to be a 100MB drive. I guess it was built in 1991. The only hard disk i've seen with a step motor to move the head.

  • @wollomatic what is the brand and model on it?

  • @MrComputerfan It's made by Venturi International Corporation, Model is VPS 105 AT. I have just uploaded some photos of this drive on Picasa: picasaweb.google.com/102399859­936760651919/OldVenturiVPS105A­THardDrive?authuser=0&feat=dir­ectlink One Photo shows the type label.

  • @wollomatic Why did you open this nice Hard Drive?

  • Thats a stepper motor, YO!

  • @wollomatic Ah! I thought it did still work, but how did you seek it?

    was the WD Caviar 140 brocken too?

  • @dxproductions100 It's no MFM hard drive. It has an AT interface.

  • @pageygeeza You had to park them before powering the computer off, if you didnt do that a few times, they will break.

  • good
