IBM floppy drives

[Roy J. Tellason]

I tore apart a couple of assemblies that came out of an IBM "SSA" setup,  
these had a small switch panel,  LCD,  keyswitch (useless since I don't have 
keys),  and a floppy drive which,  when I pulled it out,  resembled a PS/2 
style drive,  though it did have a separate 4-pin power connector and no 
faceplate.  The short ribbon cable in there went to a single connector (pin 
type) that had the power wiring coming out of it as well.

Can anybody use these?

I also have a regular PS/2 floppy drive as well,  and no particular need for 
it.  I'd corresponded with somebody about that a while back,  pulled it out 
of the box it was in,  and it never went anywhere.  This one has the single 
card-edge connector in the back of it,  and again no faceplate.

Either of these items of interest,  feel free to contact me off-list.
