The Teac FD-235HF is the most common 1.44 MB, 3.5" drive in the galaxy.
It is the most popular drive sold with all of the IBM clones, in that
size category. I have one myself. Just pick up any Computer Shopper
issue, there are probably 150 different vendors in that mag alone that
sell the drive. The going price ranges from $50-$70. The prices near
the bottom of the spectrum seem to turn up most often at computer swaps.
As for TEAC's address:
TEAC America, Inc.
7733 Telegraph Road
Montebello, CA 90640
(213) 726-0303
Hope it helps!
