I think the disk drive is in the monitor or is a separate piece that you plug in. This part I have is not needed to run the tr-80 machine I believe it is just used for storage . There are none like it listed on *bay right now so i have no comparison as far as a price goes. I will call the guy that had these back for some other work he offered and asked him if he could remember if he had the manuals these seem to sell if you don't ask $300 for them....some people lol
If it is a "trs-80" it had no disk drive either. It had a cable that went to a cassette tape deck.



Actually a picture would be cool. I don't think we are talking about the same stuff here.
