Hey Charles,
Keep in mind that nearly every TPDD these days that has not had new
rubber drive belts installed will likely need one. After 35+ years,
they have dry-rotted and the motor does not spin the disk. These can
also be purchased, but taking apart the TPDD and putting it back
together is a bit of an effort.

Thank you to Steven, Brian, Kurt et al. for your suggestions.
This is the TPDD, catalog 26-3808.
I think the simplest option for me is to order one of the TPDD disks
from Arcade Shopper, which I will do today. The manual describes the
boot process from the disk.
I do have a cassette drive, CCR-81, but I don't have REX implemented
yet and would like to verify operation sooner rather than later.
I'll report back when operational.
Thanks again for your responses.
