Although not the same drive, I recently replaced the
floppy drive on my EIII keyboard.  I called Teac:

DSPD Parts Department:
voice:    (323) 727-4840
fax:       (323) 727-7632
e-mail:  parts@...

http://www.teac.com/DSPD/catalog.htm

Only thing I had to do was set the correct boot strap,
think it was two jumpers.

Got a brand new drive with bezel, was under $40
