Elm,

Still trying to get this E1 to boot.  I added a few
pics of the jumpers on the two drives that I am trying
to get to work. Both are 400L models, not sure if
there is a SA-400L?  think the SA just stands for
Shugart Associates and isn't a different model. The
jumper block on your drive is all the way to the end
of the circuit board on mine its one IC in. At this
point there are a few things that might be bad as
well. The Boot PROM might be bad, the Z-80 SIO/2 might
be bad, and it might just be a set of bad floppies. 

Had a couple of questions if you don't mind?   If you
put an unformatted floppy in the drive, how does the
E1 react? Is the red LED on the drive supposed to come
on? It never does on mine, all you hear is the disk
spinning.  

All the LEDs on the E1 stay lit except for the
Sample/overload  and sometimes the swap turns off. Is
that an indicator of anything?

Thanks
G
