Consignment sale for a collector who is downsizing. It came from a Micro pdp11 that was reported to us as working when last used. We tested the pdp11 system to power on and respond to the control pane only. While connected to the pdp11, we were able to power on the Qualogy drive and toggle the Ready and Write protect LEDs, with no Fault LED. When the drive was powered on while disconnected, we did see a Fault LED, which may be because it was not connected to its controller. Otherwise untested and sold as-is, officially \"for parts or not working\" with no guarantee of functionality or completeness whatsoever. Listing is for the drive, card and cable only with no power cord, computer or other accessories.

Will ship with the bezel, card and cable packed inside the case.

This is the only one on the market - don\'t let it get away!
