Disklavier

Stay away from TEAC. I had 2 that didn't work and worse yet, corrupted existing floppy data. I got credit w/o having to return anything --- they KNEW!

I finally got my hands on a DYNEX DX-EF101 and it works fine.

I bought this one:

...Because it stated that it would read both 720KB and 1.4 MB discs. I think I read a review saying that the TEAC would not read 720kb discs. Ill report back when it arrives, probably tomorrow.

You can't directly mount it with the standard PC software, but if you can access the raw disk, you will find a dos FAT filesystem there.     There is DOS (real DOS unfortunately, not stuff that can run on Windows) to access this.  I  figure when I get a few days I'll write MAC software to use the thing.
