This vintage Bigfoot CY 6480A powers on, spins up, and can be accessed for basic read/write operations. It passes some basic diagnostic testing and some extended testing as well. The drive is readable, writable, and functioning, but due to its age, the drive cannot be considered reliable and should be considered END of LIFE. NOT recommended for storage of mission critical data. It is being sold strictly AS‑IS, NO RETURNS.
Please Note: I have noticed it sometimes takes a minute or two for the OS to recognize the HD.
