Floppy disc drive

Post by maxibrady1 »

Hi guys
Anyone know where I would get a new or used floppy disc drivr for Trinity plus... Mine is broken. Not reading discs saying unforrmattEd.
Also when I try to format a disc it is saying error on medium disc.
Thanks in advance. Don't know too much about what make to buy or what make will fit....

I just replaced the one on my Trinity with this from Amazon - https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B003AXXO ... UTF8&psc=1 works fine.

have you tried cleaning the heads of the drive? Something like this product:

About every 5 or 6 years I have to do this with my 01/Wfd a few times. It also reads disks unformatted until I clean the write heads. It would be a lot simpler than replacing the disk drive on your Trinity.
