When no floppy disks are inserted the usage LED indicator of the floppy disk drive should be off, and the magnetic head shouldn't move if no floppy disks are inserted in the floppy disk drive. This also occurs on the 3 (three) floppy disk drives I connected via the adapter. This happens all the time when no floppy disks are inserted in the floppy disk drive. And the floppy disk drive's magnetic head seems to move as it does a short noise every second or so when no floppy disks are inserted.
The floppy drive works well itself, it can read and write floppy disks.īut some process seem to constantly "check" the floppy disk drive as its usage LED indicator is always on even if no floppy disks are inserted. The adapter name shown in the BIOS/UEFI is TEAC USB UF000x, the name shown by udisks -show-info is TEACV0.0. I'm trying to mount a 3.5'' 1.44MB floppy disk drive in a modern computer via a 34 pins floppy disk drive connector to external male USB adapter. I'm currently running under Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon 64-bit.
