Tom-
I
needed a replacement drive too last year for my prophet. I found the TEAC
FD-235HF worked well- the trick is to find a drive that has moveable jumper
pins, because the ID of the drive must be set to "0". Most drives that come with
pcs are configured as ID1- this will not work in the prophets. I found the
drives at a used computer store that refurbished old machines- I bought 2 or 3
of them for under $10. I'm sure ther are many other drives that will work too-
just look for those with jumpers that aren't hard wired.
Best
of luck with your repairs,
michael
