We have a Macintosh 3.5" diskdrive which has lost its heads. The disk drives are 3.5" sony types, but I can't find anyone who will supply me with a replacement set of heads (which simply plug into the assembly). An exchange disk drive costs about #100, but it looks like the heads should only be #15~#20, so I would rather not but the exchange drive, since a local repair is so simple.
