We restore more HP 9895A dual 8" diskette HP-IB drives, but these will be way more challenging. We'll need a full on logic analyzer assisted repair to debug a really, really nasty fault. It's a long video, but don't miss the intermission where Master Ken inspects a transparent silicon-on-sapphire chip!
Many thanks to HP enthusiast Craig Ruff for the ROM dump and disassembly.
