NotesThe hard disk fitted in the Tandon 286 (RH-4UJN). Identified by "TM 262" stamped on the drive casting; the warranty seal over the spindle is intact but filthy. Geometry and interface are from the Tandon TM262 product specification, not from testing this drive. Condition: extremely poor. The whole drive is caked in dirt and rodent debris, with rust spots and mould-like staining across the casting and the label. Untested and not to be spun up as found.
