Drew
I had a similar problem with a floppy drive that I bought from #66.
I thought I bought the wrong drive or floppies. 

I emailed them & they told me to make sure the ribbon connector had a 
good connection.

I cleaned the contacts on my Sd & reconnected & everything is fine.

Remember VFX's were always finicky about disks, too much data for the 
media.
