That's probably it. The drive is not stuck, so I'll put it on the MFM
tester later this week and see what's up. Does the adapter board have
its' own power supply?
I'm guessing it's a Shugart SA1000 to MFM interface card. On the bottom
side of it it says "Perq systems", that, the little stack of washers to
offset it from the drive, and the numerous wire hacks on the board mark
it as yet another product from the mighty Three Rivers company :-)
God my shed is getting full....

Found more stuff. 4 Perq boards, the HP1000, a Perq mouse and "pad", a
Sun4 keyboard with 15 pin plug, and another Perq2 keyboard. Also
found a
weird one, a MFM drive with an adapter board on the bottom. Is the
below
a MFM to Shugart interface?
My PERQ 2 Micropolis 1303 which I recently imaged has an adapter board
on top of the drive. The interface to the PERQ is through a 50 pin flat
cable. The adapter board also has connections for two ST506 drives. I
wonder if that is what you have? No, I am not Discord connected.

Pics are up on the Discord server right now along with the HP1000.
