Hi, yes it's a 3.5 drive, but would it still fit a Macintosh? Thanks.

Failing that, I have the 3.5" drive out of the Mac Classic that MangaSurfer gave me - and after trying to clean it up it's really only fit for parts due to the nasty alkaline leak. Well, parts and an awesome solar powered letter box. (There may be pics...)

This would be a 800k one right? If so how much for it and shipping to Christchurch?

Haha, I have no need for the spring anymore, but I might consider your drive? Whats the damage like?

No damage - PM me where you would like it. As a Classic, it may be 1.44MB - not sure and can't test it.

/edit - The sticker says Sony 2MB, so yeah, not 800M.

Hi, sorry for the late reply just been offline. I'm currently in the process of tidying up the Plus, so I don't really need the drive sorry. Just don't want to take it if someone else needs it. Thanks.
