My floppy drive is not even old or used and it's making an abrasive noise when it spins my disks as if they are bad, but they aren't. Sometimes I won't be allowed to write even to a perfectly good disk. I have had this drive for perhaps 3 months and only used it for transferring a few files. My BIOS screen also pauses between the system info screen and searching for the floppy all of a sudden in the last few weeks.
I'm not saying floppies don't have a place, but they look an unreliable dinosaur compared to the rest of PC gear. If a Sony drive can't even work for 3 months properly...!
