Geez it looks as slow, noisy and "reliable" as a regular cassette deck. At the time, I would die for one of those drives but not having ever seen it up close, and now watching this video, I am truly happy because I didn't own one... 😂
I did not dismantle a Microdrive cartridge yet. But I've read that early cartridges (maybe many?) had plastic spindles which were prone to jamming. Later on they used a metal spindle and these cartridges were way more reliable. Thank you, you business scrooges! ;-)
First time I've seen one operate. Thanks!
Ditto
What a satisfying sound that thing makes.
I never owned one of those. Thank you for the upload.
Lame video. Half of it he talked about the connectors of the computer!
I so wanted one of these back in 85 when I was 14. Never managed to get one. I wonder what 14 year old me would have thought of NVME gen 5 storage.

Thank you very much: this was very interesting
Hello, where i can find this demo program?
They worked fine, except when they jammed, which they did with annoying frequency.
