For the A1000 specifically, this is probably the best GoTek swap I've seen. (I still use the original floppy drive with mine, but I do understand they are failing and hard to replace with OEM devices.)

That right there is for the
bracket only, but at least someone is making them and it looks to be a good design.
In that post the creator outlines what you would need to replicate his setup.
- Standard OLED Screen, you can get them online at various sellers. It is a 0.91 inch 128x32 I2C IIC Serial OLED LCD Screen Module 4-PIN DC 3.3V 5V.
- For the speaker, they are 4.92 x 4.72 x 0.79 inches and 5v of the PC beeper type.
- Standard 3.5" floppy size Goteks from China in bulk: 3.5'' 1.44M SFR1M44-U100K that have the LED Digits. I remove the board and then from there I remove the green LED light and replace it with a 2 pin header, I then would flash the device with flash floppy.
- The OLED would be wired up using the existing Cable for the LED harness.
- Screws are re-used from the inside of the Gotek to attach to the printed frame.
- Jumpers are placed as per the pictures.
He has a ton of additional important notes that really should be read before going this route. It's not a simple plug-and-play swaparoo. Even the USB drive he's using is a bit custom to handle the kickstart disks.
The fact you can't easily hit the "go right" button would be somewhat annoying, I think, but does allow you to maintain the stealth look. There's going to be trade-offs.
