The 8245 drive has very often the problem that a rubber band in it
starts slipping -> disc doesn't rotate anymore.
There seem to be replacements available for this rubber band. Try

In any computer or electronics shop. You can use the normal 1.44
HD/DD drives. Only thing you need to change is the connector. I think
the required data is in the Ultimate MSX FAQ (www.faq.msxnet.org).
