I am looking for a good but cheap source for a floppy disk drive
for a home brew project.  I am designing my own controller so
S100-like compatability isn't important.  The prices I've seen run
around $390 for a SSDD 8" and around $500 for DSDD.  The 5" drives
seem to run $200 SSDD and $235 DSDD.  (Prices from recent BYTE mag.)

Does anyone know of a less expensive source.

Thanks, Marc Pucci

PS: mail to me, i will summarize to NET if interest is shown.
