Qume Qumetrak 592 5.25" Floppy Disk Drive FULL HEIGHT - As Is
From the manufacturer:
The QumeTrak 592 Floppy Disk Drive is a low cost, direct access data storage device for 5.25 inch, two-sided flexible (floppy) diskettes. The QumeTrak 592 provides a formatted storage capacity of 328K bytes on a two-sided single density flexible diskette and 655K bytes on a two-sided double density flexible diskette. The unformatted storage capacity of the QumeTrak 592 provides 500K bytes on a two-sided single density flexible diskette and 1M bytes on a two-sided double density flexible diskette.
The QumeTrak 592 is an advanced design that is based on Qume's manufacturing experience with the QumeTrak 542 and the 1arger QumeTrak 842, eight-inch drive. It employs a two-sided head carriage assembly with a ceramic Read/Write (R/W) tunnel erase head for long media life. A precision steel band drive mechanism provides fast access time (3ms track-to-track) and affords minimal wear with low power dissipation. A direct drive DC spindle motor is used for media drive. This design eliminates drive belt maintenance. A door interlock prevents the door from being closed until the media is properly inserted. Other standard features include:
- Four drive daisy chain capability
- Internal write protect circuitry
- In Use LED activity indicator on the front panel Capability to read diskettes recorded in conventional 48TPI
- Low heat dissipation
