- Does anyone know of any sort of cleaning kit for the
- Sony rewritable (magneto-optical) disk drives? A couple
- of our drives are beginning to have trouble loading the
- heads when a new platter is inserted. When I open up
- the external case, there's a lot of very fine dust
- that has accumulated in the drive mechanism. Blowing it
- out doesn't work (it seems to be firmly attached). I'd
- wipe it out by hand, but the drive doesn't openup without
- complete disassembly. Is there anything similar to the
- cleaning kits you can get for CDROM's?
