I have a Compaq Portable III with a 3.5" floppy drive that seems to have
gone bad. Does anyone know if this is a "standard" drive that could be
replaced with a current 3.5" drive? If not, is there a specific type of
drive I need to use for a replacement?

I haven't even ventured to see how to go about opening the machine yet, so I
don't know if it's easy or hard. Any pointers would be helpful. Thanks.
