I have a couple of Ampex ACE editors that have two 8" drives each. <br>
When I first got them, one of the drives had "issues", so I found a
place in CA that could repair them.<br>
A few years ago, when my focus changed from a "personal museum",where I
was going to build a "state of the art", mid -80's edit suite for my
own amusement, to a working tape transfer facility, I put all that kind
of stuff in storage.<br>

I think the original CBS satellite distribution pilot system used a PDP
system. If I recall, it had a HUGE floppy disc!<br>
