HAVING HAD MY TRITON FOR 6 YEARS IT HAS BEEN GREAT AND DONE WONDERS CAREER WISE. i WAS WAITING FOR SOMETHING TO GO WRONG WITH IT AS TECHNOLOGY DOES.
iN THIS CASE ITS MY FLOPPY DRIVE ON THE SYNTH.
INSERTING A FLOPPY WHICH I STORE MY SEQ INSTRUMENTATION SET UPS FOR EACH SONG, USING LOGIC ON COMPUTER TRYING TO LOAD THE FLOPPY INFO JUST DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK. I CAN HEAR DISK ACTIVITY FOR A SPLIT SECOND THEN NOTHING, ASLO NO LIGHT COMES ON EITHER ( THE GREEN ACTIVITY LIGHT).

WHEN I SLOWLY PUSH THE FLOPPY DOWN A LITTLE WHILE IN THE DRIVE , THE ACTIVITY LIGHT COMES ON AND DISK STARTS TO MAKE A NOISE, NORMAL FOR FLOPPY BUT CAN BE A BIT MORE AGGRESSIVE SOMETIMES. tHEN NOTHING LOADS, AND UNFORMATTED DISK COMES UP ON THE SCREEN BOTTOM. ( AS THERE IS INFO ON THE FLOPPY DISKS IM SURE)

I DONT KNOW WHAT KIND OF A PORBLEM THIS IS, HOPEFULLY THE FIRST THING IT HAS NOT LOST AN INFO ON THE FLOPOPYS, SECOND I HOPE ITS FIXABLE AND WITHING A REASONABLE BUDGET.

tAKE CARE GUYS LET ME KNOW IF ANYONE HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND WORKED IT OUT.
CONTACTED KORG AS WELL BUT THAT WILL NEDD 2 DAYS.

Please don't type in all caps. It is considered as "shouting".

I had the same thing happen with mine. Open the keyboard up and remove the drive and clean it with alcohol. It's not hard if you take a few digital pictures.

I'm going to start calling it a floopy disk from now on.
