Sounds like good news ! The online consensus is that the 1541-II rarely goes out of alignment, so I'm still considering putting a parallel cable on one of those as well. I did manage to get the ALPS drive working. I took it completely apart, cleaned and lubed the rails, motor, etc. but the big thing that probably fixed it was the screw on the stepper motor head that holds the metal belt in place was loose. I super tightened that and after a couple of search knocks and disk ID mismatch errors it started working fine. Anyway, I think that was a big part of the problem. Now the ALPS drive is working again, so I'll just ease up on using it as much. |
