Emax

The problem is that the disks starts spinning and then stops again.
It usually starts working after 10-20 attempts, but it's too slow
to be able to boot off of it.  The Emax will give up before the
disk is ready.

I used to have to hit my Amiga A1200 to get the drive to spin.  Got
used to that pretty quickly and used it for years like that.

I found someone close by though that appears to have a stack
of 52MB Quantum drives.  Going to check those out tonight.
