Is there a list of floppy disk drives which could read and write both 3.5"
1.44mb and 720k diskettes?
A product line of musical instruments (General Music/Ahlborn-Galanti) I
service use 3.5" 720K DD floppy disk drives.
I've never had any problems formatting or backing up data files prior on
other instruments. Tuesday, I attempted to format a floppy disk using the
instrument's internal FDD prior to backing up the data files. After the
format an error appears "corrupted data". Which could mean so several
different things from a bad floppy drive, etc.
I currently have one box of Sony MFD-2DD 3.5" 720K Double Density Floppy
diskettes which were bought new a few years ago, kept in their box, and
stored in a dust free place. I've used them prior for the same purpose with
no problems.
I'd like to be able to verify at home that the diskettes haven't all
suddenly gone bad.
Thanks
