A friend of mine is running this one for me, here's the link:

I've been hanging on to this one, but trying to get away from floppies. Still a great and working drive.

That looks very interesting. I'm using an SD floppy emulator on my ST at the moment and it works very well.

Do you know if he's had any issues using this with the ST? If it stays low then its worth placing a bid.

Not sure what you mean, but the only issue would be the cable off the ST should be flipped. I tested it in an IBM compatible and it was working great at 1.44mb. Jumper settings are available online at a lot of places.
