RE: CBM 4040 Drive and the Apple Disk II

 
The first Disk II drives (A2M0003) sold were built using parts from Shugart
Drives, but to reduce costs Apple switched to Alps Electric Co. of Japan who
built them for half the cost. Early production at Apple was handled by two
people, and they produced about thirty drives a day.

According to this document, the drive mechanism should be a Shugart?

There are some drive schematics here, including a parts list of the drive
mech itself:
