Hi Scott,

It's a standard floppy disk drive, one that's available for under $20 at any computer store. So far, my 2000s and current 740s have held up remarkably well, especially considering that I play in a lot of smoke-filled bars where you can cut the smoke with a knife. This environment trashed my first 740's floppy. When I opened the case, there was a thin layer of brown cigarette smoke tar on every component. I took the floppy to my local computer guy and he pulled one off the shelf that was an exact match. The first words out of his mouth were "It's just a standard floppy drive--nothing special."

The same, exact drive is what is also in the 2000, and I suspect lots of other keyboards. If your floppy ever does crash, and some will eventually die, they are easily replaced.

Cheers,

Gary
