Dated April of 1984 if you believe it. Anyway the diskdrive was erasing disks so I decided to grab some parts from it. The motors! I need the specs on a sony motor model dnr-6700B. It has two wires, a red and orange one. The other motor, sony model sns-1500a, (the stepping motor I think) has 6 wires. 2 white, a blue, red, yellow, and brown. So what volts do these guys run at? What do all the wires do on the stepping motor? I don't know what I want to do with them yet, but it could be fun. :-) Thanks for any help, pointers, or ideas on what to use these for... -- "Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed.
