1581DV - A vertical version of the dual 1581 drive that Commodore should have made

   Current lead time is 1-2 weeks   

A Dual Commodore 1581 in a vertical configuration. 

Commodore never made a dual 1581 drive and so we did!  The 1581DV has internal power circuitry that allows us to use any standard "wall wart" transformer between 7.5 and 12 volts.  That means that if something happens to your wall transformer (like misplacing it!) you can grab another that you likely have lying around the house.

Finally, all internal integrated circuits and the internal power circuitry are on sockets, meaning that replacement decades in the future are simple to do.

Both drives are powered by one wall transformer.  The back of the drive has two switches that set the address of each individual drive.  Either drive can be set to device number 8, 9, 10, or 11. 

Please note that in order to achieve 100% compatibility, some of the internal components are obtained from previously used and new-open-stock sources,  To ensure the highest reliability, all components and the drives themselves undergo extensive testing during manufacture and prior to shipment.  See How We Test Our Products for detailed information.
