Problem in XP-50 Roland: Replacing the Disk Drive

Posted by George P. Moore on Mon, 08/06/2001 - 18:35.

I'm in a dilema here. I need to get a replacement 3.5 Floppy Drive for my XP-50. Roland wants $85 dollars plus shipping and handling, intoen they want $100 for the part, plus $65/hr labor plus a 3 week wait. TEAC the manufacturer of the Disk Drive says the FD235HF-6527 is not available anymore but the FD235HF-A529 should be equivalent to the 6527. Do you know anyone who has had there XP-50 repaired in the area of the 3.5 disk drive? If so, do you know what model drive they used. Please help. I'm in the middle of 2 music projects which require sequenced to be saved then transported to MIDI files and/or recorded to Cakewalk sequencing program. Any advice besides going back to Roland would help. Thanks in advance.
