Wanted: spare eject buttons for A3000D floppy drives
I'm looking for a couple of spare eject buttons for the floppy drives in A3000D's.
If you have any, please send a PM. Thanks. |

Out of curiosity would they fit any Amiga disk drive or do you need a specific model?

The A3000D has specially shaped buttons because the slot and hole for the eject button is molded into the front bezel. It's a unique thing about the 3000's. Buttons from an A3000T floppy might work as well.
I'm not sure if the buttons would fit any floppy model, but I know they will fit Chinon FB-357A's, and I have two of those to replace a failed one in my 3000D, but I'd like an extra button or two, just in case. |

A3000D and A3000T have same buttons (also same FB drive mechanizm)
those buttons are extremely rare, ive once bought a dead drive just for that button from US (which cost almost 40 bucks shipped :/) |

With a little modification inside to the bracket you can mount regular 880k drives.. I did (had no choice lol) when i got my a3k.. only takes a few mins to drill some new holes for mounting .
