eBay is actually your best bet for a fair price, otherwise you are 
paying about 200$+ for the kit through PowerMax, PBParts.com, etc.

 My floppy drive died. It froze, and jammed. Then made the computer srash
 (in OS 9). It sarted working once. Then failed again forever.
 
 They are delicate , and hard to fix. Floppies are very poor for

 First: My floppy drive does not spin.  When I insert a disk, nothing
 happens.  The computer even once said that it didn't recognize the module.
 Have any of you experienced similar problems?  If so, how the heck can I
 fix this?
