My Mirage DSK-1 has suddenly become quite unwilling to *format* disks. Other disk operations usually work. I have ordered some floppy "cleaning kits", but...
It shouldn't be a problem. The other side of the cleaning disk just won't have any effect on the disk drive system because there is no drive head tracking that...
So I guess that I will need to format new floppy disk's to the Mirage. What if I want to use an external USB floppy drive with my Mac? I was thinking that I...

Jay.... On a Mirage 'UD' normally stands for 'Unformated Disk'....that may be the problem....Do you know if these are original Ensoniq disks or various ...
man... hehehe even the Ensoniq disks aren't reading, so I'm fearing the worst. I just read though that if I need to I can replace the drive. It might come to...
I should add (just in case this means anything) that the drive IS registering when I load in a disk (I think). At least, when I remove the disk it blinks "nd" ...
Right - the drive can tell there's a disk inserted, but the UD really just means it couldn't read the OS off the floppy. Cleaning the heads is a good first...
