It's a Toshiba; if it fits, it works. :D

Yep. And Toshibas, especially with a little tweaking, when you think it won't work... Boom! It does.

Yes, I wish Toshiba heads failed more often. They are such a breeze to match and they always seem to work. Got one here that I'm preparing to use the same heads to recover another case after I've already used them for a previous one. Even date doesn't seem to matter much, I've had some that were pretty far off and imaged at full speed.
