Internal 5.25" floppy drive - Label - a photo on Flickriver

            Manufactured by IBM in 1985.

Came with an IBM PC/AT my dad brought home from work around 1988.

Moved in the new IBM-compatible PC (80386DX at 40MHz) my parents gave me as a birthday gift in 1993.

Remained in service in that PC from 1993 to 2003.

When said PC was dumped in 2004, the drive was removed and kept in storage. 

Today, February 23, 2010 was successfully installed in a Pentium III/500 MHz.

It never malfunctioned. It never gave me a problem.

All the 5.25" floppy disks I tested today were good. Some of them are almost 25 years old.

This is beautiful.
