Description: American seller eBay member for over 20 years Vintage Seagate ST-3096A 89MB IDE hard drive. Museum quality! SN: CW460884 We purchased directly from Seagate distribution on May 5, 1993. Removed by our service dept decades ago during a routine upgrade and has been in protected storage since. These drives had relatively little use — we had an aggressive upgrade program so most drives were upgraded after only 12 to 24 months. The removed drives have been stored undisturbed for decades. Great choice for a 90's period-accurate retro system. This is a nice size because it is within certain capacity limits of early vintage BIOS and O/S. Professionally restored and FULLY TESTED: Very quiet, operates smoothly. Booted right up after all these years. Full surface zeroed and scanned for bad sectors - none found. Single large partition created. Fresh install of MS-DOS 6.22. Another full surface scan using scandisk, zero defects found. Chkdsk shows zero bad sectors. BIOS drive parameters CHS: 1024/10/17 Should boot right up in any compatible system. Or, reformat, re-partition and install whatever O/S you prefer. Clean, very good physical and cosmetic condition (see photos). You will receive exactly the item you see in the photos. Shipped via USPS with full tracking from a USPS regional SCF (Sectional Center Facility) so delivery anywhere within the U.S. is only a few days away (excluding the occasional USPS misdirect). RETURNS: • Sold with 30 Day Warranty — If the drive fails or a serious defect not disclosed in the listing is found within 30 days of purchase, I will stand behind the product. • Please contact me with details of any issue so we can resolve the problem or work out an appropriate solution. • I will provide a reasonable amount of technical assistance if you have questions concerning the configuration or proper use of the item.
