Released in 1988 and succeeding the 1541C, the 1541-II drive is the second revision of the upgraded original 1541 drive, further matching the look of the C64c computers with a much more streamlined size and style.
Unlike the 1541’s before it, the 1541-II has an external power supply which is the main factor in allow its smaller desktop footprint. Moving the power supply externally also yielded cooler operating temperatures for the 1541-II, leading to lower failure rates of the internal components such the drive mechanism and belts.
All 1541-II drives listed here (unless otherwise specified) have been fully refurbished and tested.
