Hi dear friends,
I have a Kaypro 2X with two DS DD disk drives, model Okidata gm 3305hu. The kaypro works but don't boot.
Trying to fix it, I removed the disk drives to test it in a DOS environment. Finally I've managed to get one of those drives working, but not the other. The configuration are the same in both drives, but one of the drives doesn't read or write diskettes at all. Normally a "Sector not found error". If you try to format a diskette, it seems to work, the head goes up and down as it was working, but after the format, you can't access de drive.
Some lead about where to start the tests?? What could be wrong??
