Would anyone happen to have a mid-1990s vintage magneto-optical
drive
available on a shelf somewhere (or, much less likely, actually in use)?
One of the faculty here has a bunch of old 230MB magneto-optical disks
that he'd like to get the data off of, and the drive he's had on a shelf
for years and years unfortunately no longer works (the fault LED
lights
and the system log shows that it is reporting one or more hardware errors).
The last other MO drive I know about within my department
was one of those
built into the old NeXT Cubes which was retired and sent to
salvage over
10 years ago.
