I’m starting to feel that it’s the actual drive problem. It will not fulfill my project (as I need a modern PC) but at last I will test if this drive works.ĮDIT: Knoppix 8.2 w/ 4.16.5 kernel gives me exact same errors. The first number means No files selected and the number after the slash means. The 3.5-inch floppy drives held on as a legacy product long after their 1.44 MB capacity had become absurdly small in relative terms. FORMAT A: Prepare and affix label to blank disk. To save data from the K2500 to a floppy disk, the disk must be formatted. If you have 3.5-inch floppy disks formatted for MS-DOS or Windows that you want to copy to a modern Windows 10 or Windows 7 PC, you’re in luck. What if I test some very old Knoppix?

BadCopy Pro helps the user with recovery of inaccessible, deleted, formatted, damaged, and unreadable files.

And I need USB as non of my computers (even servers) do not have floppy connection (it wasn’t ATA as I recall but still I only have SATA and SAS connectors). It rewrites the recovered data to a new folder that the user specifies instead of writing to the same original disks and can retrieve file types such as documents, videos, images, and more. I read a lot here and there and most Linux programs do not support USB drives.
