OK, I'll try that.

There does appear to be some sort of issue with disk ejects. When I
power on the IIgs it continually tries to eject the disk (even if
there's nothing in there). I can insert a disk with the power off, but
it gets ejected as soon as I flip the power switch. I *think* the mech
is good, but I guess I should check with another one.

Going to go visit my Mac collecting friend who has another drive.
