I've had a Toshiba drive in my upgraded 520STfm (internal floppy) and it
works great
except that the ST doesn't detect media change correctly.  Jumpering
with a switch
some lines fixed that but it ain't ths safest the way I did it.

I paid about US$ 85 including postage

maybe somebody has the dirt on the media change?
